I have a Dell Dimensions 8200 computer with windows XP Pro (SP2). I would
appreciate it very much if someone could explain the difference between the
two Microsoft calculators. Thanks, Sam.

How about using them and seeing the difference? Or just looking at the
description of the Plus one?

Microsoft Calculator
-------------------------
"You can use Calculator to perform any of the standard operations for which
you would normally use a handheld calculator. Calculator performs basic
arithmetic, such as addition and subtraction, as well as functions found on
a scientific calculator, such as logarithms and factorials."


Microsoft Calculator Plus
-------------------------------
"This application allows you to complete many different types of
conversions; it also includes all the mathematical functions offered in
Microsoft Calculator."

Shenan, thanks very much for your reply and information. I did look at a
web site for each program but did not find as much information as you did
for the Microsoft Calculator (MS PowerToys for Windows XP). Thanks again,
Sam.

Calculator comes with XP. Calculator Plus is free. Download it and do a side
by side comparison. Not so difficult, is it? After all, you were at the web
site to read about it - you are right at the download as well.
