@ducecoop32, exactly what I needed!
Here is the Product Specifications page for the computer. At the bottom of the page, in the section titled "Software", is a list of the software that can be reinstalled with the Recovery media. It appears that you must have purchased MSFT Office when you bought the computer. You will have to contact their Customer Support for help with reinstalling it.

@ducecoop32, welcome to the forum.
What is the full model or product number of your computer? I need this information to see which programs were installed when you bought the computer.
