This file is not included by default, but your hosting company may include one for you. If you can't see the .htaccess file in the root folder of your site, you will have to create one.

Also, in your httpd.conf file search for AllowOverride and make sure it reads AllowOverride All. (If it reads AllowOverride none, then .htaccess will be ignored.)
