Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The little, round label on this book's cover says that over 40 million people don't mind being referred to as "dummies" since they've turned to this series to ease their technological burden. Personal insults aside, Microsoft Money 98 for Dummies does exactly what it promises: it provides a nonthreatening guidebook to the Microsoft Money 98 application. In addition to no-nonsense instruction throughout the application, the book describes how to use the software most effectively for inputting data, printing checks, and other common tasks. This reference also teaches more advanced features, such as how to manage your personal portfolio (or create one if you don't have one) or use Money 98 for a small business.

Most of the instruction here repackages information that is already in the program or in its documentation. However, if you need a step-by-step guide to the program's operation or need help figuring out exactly how to integrate the program into your financial record-keeping, you'll find Microsoft Money 98 for Dummies to be accurate, helpful, and certainly not intimidating.
