I need to find the optical character recognition capability in MS Office. How
can I find its location so that I can use it?

It comes with recent Word versions and is called Microsoft Document Imaging.
It will be in Microsoft Office Tools - if you have installed it. If not,
re-run Office setup and add it.

Note that it is rather rudimentary compared with (say) Finereader, but its
character recognition engine is quite good.
