How To Do Everything with Office XP

Rating:
Summary: Makes Office seem easy and powerful.
Review: I bought this book because I really liked the Excel Troubleshooting book by the same author. I figured if she could write about Excel and explain both simple and complex concepts with equal effectiveness, she'd probably do a good job with the rest of Office. I was right, and I encourage you to buy this book. The examples are practical and realistic, and the coverage is thorough without being dull, and the author's being a teacher really shows because she really can explain things clearly and seems to have a lot of experience with people using and learning Office. I recommend this book without any reservation.

Summary: Great reference for Office XP
Review: I've been using Office for a while now, and they upgraded me to XP at work, even though I was happy with 97 (they skipped the 2000 upgrade). There were enough new features in XP and there are a zillion things that even an experienced user can miss about Office, so I decided to get a book. This book really makes it easy to learn them. I found quicker ways to do stuff that I'd been doing the way I taught myself to do them, and found a bunch of new features I didn't even know existed. This isn't one of those NYC phone book-thick books, but it does cover all the parts of the Office suite. The writer is easy to read, gives really clear examples and practical suggestions, and obviously really knows the software and how to explain it all to people. I really recommend this book!!!

Summary: This book is GREAT!!
Review: So far, everything I need is in this book. I wrote to the author with a question on a printing problem I was having, and she answered really quickly, and helped me out. Even though my problem really didn't have anything to do with Office! This book is easy to read, but doesn't baby you too much. There is a ton of information in this book and its really organzied and explained well. I recommend this book to any new or intermediate user of Office, even if you alreayd think you know it.
