4.0 out of 5 stars
Great manual for the manualess program
I have used this program since the ClarisWorks 3.0.1 version, and was a little overwhelmed by all the changes in the latest version of this book. A lot of information in the book I already knew, but a lot I did not. I only wish I had this book 5 years ago, and it would have saved me A LOT of frustration.

2.0 out of 5 stars
No improvement over the manual
I confess to having been spoiled by Pogue's books on the Palm Pilot and the Mac, and so expected a lot of information that went way beyond the Appleworks manual, but I didn't find this book at all helpful in the areas I most needed the help. For years I've happily used the old Microsoft Works (version 2.00e) program and switched a year ago to the Appleworks program...

This review is from: AppleWorks 5 for Dummies (Paperback)
I confess to having been spoiled by Pogue's books on the Palm Pilot and the Mac, and so expected a lot of information that went way beyond the Appleworks manual, but I didn't find this book at all helpful in the areas I most needed the help. For years I've happily used the old Microsoft Works (version 2.00e) program and switched a year ago to the Appleworks program. The vastly larger number of bells and whistles made it difficult to figure out how to do things that were simple on the older program, and Appleworks 5 didn't provide much or easily findable help (e.g., TRY to find out how to get numerical data formatted as dollars in the manual.) I'd hoped this book would give me the answers, but found it essentially repeats the program manual's lack of helpfulness. Index wasn't very good either.
