From the Publisher

From John Visaggi, President of DDC, says, "Our brilliant author, Iris Blanc, in conjunction with Cathy Vento, not exactly stupid, has created teacher- and corporate-recommended books which, through simple lessons, don't just inform, but teach. 'Tell me fast, and tell me true, or else my friend, to heck with you.' That is how DDC books are built."

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best tutorials for Microsoft Office, November 29, 1999

This is one of the best books on the subject of Microsoft Office. I have read numerous books on the subject and I would say this one stands out. Other books on the subject are ususally 90% reading and 10% doing. Some even come with diskettes with lessons. But I feel that you learn how to do a program through using it - not reading about it. With Learning Microsoft Office for Windows 95 it is a step by step process to ensure that by the time you finish a particular subject, i.e. Powerpoint you become (in my opinion) an expert in Powerpoint. It is written in easy and concise language that lets the user begin learning on the first day. This book is probably outdated, but I would recommend it even if your software is updated.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Way to Learn Office 95 Applications, November 19, 2001

This review is from: Learning Microsoft Office for Windows 95: Word-Excel-Access-Powerpoint (Spiral-bound)

This book is very very well done. I learned Access in several days with easy to follow examples. Admittedly, I was a little nervous about taking on Access, but this book made me feel at ease and now I consider myself very proficient with databases. Each MS program has its own section which is further broken down into lessons, each of which has exercises, so its a very organized approach.

Now the bad news: I lost my copy after my last move and now am going to get another.

BUY THIS BOOK IF YOU'RE USING OFFICE 95!
