1.0 out of 5 stars Good Books, BUT WATCH OUT ! The CD doesn't run on W98 !,, August 9, 2001

This review is from: Microsoft Excel 97 Step by Step Complete Course (Step By Step Series) (Paperback)
. This set of 2 books and a CD is beautifully done. It's a solid course and a fair reference too. The glossary and index are professionally done. Even the physical size of the 2 books is nice.

BUT WATCH OUT ! AND I MEAN B E W A R E !

The Microsoft CAMCORDER program that presents the interactive course demos and examples DOES NOT RUN on Windows 98, and it probably doesn't run on anything higher that Windows 95.

After 7 phone calls to them, Microsoft failed to get the CD to run on Windows 98. Microsoft's "Second Level Technical Support" has actually admitted to me that they dropped W-95's CAMCORDER.EXE support in W-98. They just really don't like to talk about it. So, if you want to use the CD to see the examples, then run it on Windows 95. I had to rebuild a W-95 system just to view the CD.
