I do not find the usual Windows calculator in the
Accessories folder of my XP Home Edition. I have done a
file search of all folders of the hard drive
for "calculator" and come up empty handed. Any ideas?

Hi Nancy,

You can create a shortcut with the following command line:

%systemroot%\system32\calc.exe

The executable name for Calculator is CALC.EXE

as youj have foundout its name is calc.exe.
you can access it via Start - Run and calc.
or if your address bar is installed with the quick links bar, just type calc in it and then hit enter.
