Default Questions about MS Office suites

With the different parts that Ms Office has. What is Visio and Access? What is Citrix, heard of it but don't know what it is exactly? I think it is some kind of programming language. MS Exchange, I think, is part of a server, but can someone explain deeper? What is the difference between Word and Wordperfect?

No! This isn't homework...curiosity for my knowledge. You're right Diire...I guess I could have googled them all...just being lazy. But if I need some elaborating, I'll post back...ok?

Access is database software marioc. It can be integrated with other MS Office software to provide data, and data can be sorted, queried etc within the software.

Visio is a flow chart software I believe. I have never used it so I really can't comment on it.

If you go here to Microsoft's Visio site, they have a Flash demo of it in action. I will be having a look as well to see what it does as well...
