Friends in of Ubuntu, Iam new to this Operating System but I want to be
using it. I have loaded it very well, but to my surprise, I can only use
Word Processor, Spread*** and Powerpoint presentation. Where are the
other applications, e.g. Access, Publisher etc? All how can I manage to
install the rest application


Access and Publisher are Microsoft programs, and as such run on the Windows
line of operating systems. If you want to use those programs you'll need to
install a virtual machine with a Windows OS, and then the programs.

OpenOffice, a free multi-os suite of tools includes Writer, Calc, Impress,
Draw, and Base, which are equivalents to Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Paint, and
Access. You can learn more about OpenOffice at http://openoffice.org
