This review is from: The Big Basics Book of Microsoft Office 97 (Paperback)

This book is so simple it allows you to become a pro at Word, Excel and Powerpoint in no time. The step by step pictures and instructions allow even the technophobic user to get up and running. It takes nothing for granted, even at one point assuming the reader has not even had access to a typewriter. If you want to teach yourself to use Office 97 and avoid those costly classes, this is THE book for you. The only drawback is that it does not cover Access. You'll have to buy another book for that.
