* '''[[Microsoft Word]]''' is a [[word processor]] included in Microsoft Office and some editions of the now-discontinued [[Microsoft Works]]. The first version of Word, released in the autumn of 1983, was for the MS-DOS operating system and introduced the [[computer mouse]] to more users. Word 1.0 could be purchased with a bundled mouse, though none was required. Following the precedents of [[LisaWrite]] and [[MacWrite]], Word for Macintosh attempted to add closer [[WYSIWYG]] features into its package. Word for Mac was released in 1985. Word for Mac was the first graphical version of Microsoft Word. Initially, it implemented the proprietary [[Doc (computing)|.doc]] format as its primary format. Word 2007, however, deprecated this format in favor of [[Office Open XML]], which was later standardized by [[Ecma International]] as an [[open format]]. Support for [[PDF|Portable Document Format]] (PDF) and [[OpenDocument]] (ODF) was first introduced in Word for Windows with [[Service Pack]] 2 for Word 2007.<ref>{{Cite press release |title=Microsoft Expands List of Formats Supported in Microsoft Office |date=May 21, 2008 |publisher=Microsoft |url=https://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2008/may08/05-21ExpandedFormatsPR.mspx |access-date=October 30, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090501133844/http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2008/may08/05-21ExpandedFormatsPR.mspx |archive-date=May 1, 2009}}</ref>
* '''[[Microsoft Excel]]''' is a [[spreadsheet]] editor that originally competed with the dominant [[Lotus 1-2-3]] and eventually outsold it. Microsoft released the first version of Excel for the Mac OS in 1985 and the first Windows version (numbered 2.05 to line up with the Mac) in November 1987.
* '''[[Microsoft PowerPoint]]''' is a [[presentation program]] used to create [[slideshows]] composed of text, graphics, and other objects, which can be displayed on-screen and shown by the presenter or printed out on [[transparency (projection)|transparencies]] or [[Presentation slide|slides]].
* '''[[Microsoft OneNote]]''' is a [[Notetaking software|notetaking program]] that gathers handwritten or typed notes, drawings, [[screenshot|screen clippings]] and audio commentaries. Notes can be shared with other OneNote users over the Internet or a network. OneNote was initially introduced as a standalone app that was not included in any [[Microsoft Office 2003]] edition. However, OneNote eventually became a core component of Microsoft Office; with the release of [[Microsoft Office 2013]], OneNote was included in all Microsoft Office offerings<!--not editions!-->. OneNote is also available as a [[web application|web app]] on Office on the web, a [[freemium]] (and later [[freeware]]) Windows desktop app, a [[mobile app]] for [[Windows Phone]], [[iOS]], [[Android (operating system)|Android]], and [[Symbian]], and a [[Metro (design language)|Metro-style]] app for [[Windows 8]] or later.
* '''[[Microsoft Outlook]]''' (not to be confused with [[Outlook Express]], [[Outlook.com]] or [[Outlook on the web]]) is a [[personal information manager]] that replaces [[Windows Messaging]], [[Microsoft Mail]], and Schedule+ starting in Office 97; it includes an e-mail client, calendar, task manager and address book. On the Mac OS, Microsoft offered several versions of Outlook in the late 1990s, but only for use with [[Microsoft Exchange Server]]. In Office 2001, it introduced an alternative application with a slightly different feature set called [[Microsoft Entourage]]. It reintroduced Outlook in Office 2011, replacing Entourage.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Fried |first=Ina |date=August 13, 2009 |title=Next Mac Office, due by 2010's end, gets Outlook |url=http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-10308997-56.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120815145139/http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-10308997-56.html |archive-date=August 15, 2012 |access-date=August 28, 2009 |website=[[CNET News]] |publisher=[[CBS Interactive]]}}</ref>
