Description:
There are vast portions of Office 97 that most users will never even see. Armed with Office 97 Secrets, however, the average user has a fighting chance of mastering the most hidden of features in the biggest, most tightly integrated office software suite available. The secrets in this volume range from simple stuff, such as customizing toolbars and menus, to more challenging tests, such as customizing the Office applications with Visual Basic 5.0. The book pays particular attention to the Office 97 Internet features. You'll learn how to create HTML documents in Word and publish them on the Web, share documents across a corporate Intranet, and even import Excel data into Web-based forms. In addition to general Office information, the authors devote full chapters to each separate Office application--Word 97, Excel 97, Access 97, PowerPoint 97, and the new e-mail and organizer client, Outlook 97. The book covers Visual Basic (VB) 5.0 extensively and includes instructions on how to use VB 5.0 to customize the other Office 97 applications. The authors also explore when to use VB scripts versus macros and provide plenty of examples for both. Office 97 Secrets uses icons in the margins to mark secrets, warnings, new features in '97, and sections pertaining to the software on the CD-ROM. The book even includes an icon that marks Macro and VB code to get you started. The CD-ROM contains Office Toys, the Power Utility Pak, Internet tools, file compression utilities, Paint Shop Pro, and others helpful programs.
