Microsoft Word is a full-featured word processor. Wordpad is much more limited in what it can do compared to Microsoft Word. For very simple documents you could use Wordpad. It has basic formatting such as fonts and colours and sizes. It does not have facilities like spell checkers or mail merge. It is better than a text editor, but not as good as a full word processor. It comes as part of Windows, whereas you have to buy Microsoft Word, which is part of Microsoft Office. Microsoft costs, because you can do so much with it, so it is much better to use as a wordprocessor than Wordpad.
