4.0 out of 5 stars
Learned new shortcuts and tricks,
By miz_amie (CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Microsoft Office 2007: Introductory Concepts and Techniques, Windows XP Edition (Paperback)
I had to purchase this book for an introductory/orientation computer application class for an online program for Nichols College. I have concidered myself very computer literate, and was affraid this class would be boring and a waste. However, I am finding with this book working through the walk-through exercises and labs that I didn't know everything. I have discovered many short cuts and easier ways to perform tasks I have previously labored to do like letter formatting. I have also learned many new keyboard shortcuts that help alot. Not having to switch back and forth to the mouse and back to the keyboard as much is a bonus.
Don't get me wrong though, it is still broken down painstakenly into every individual step and keystroke, so for me, that is overkill. However, someone who has never laid eyes on any of these programs before, this book can take them a long ways in learning how to navigate the office suite, make striking letters, charts, and leaflets.

This review is from: Microsoft Office 2007: Introductory Concepts and Techniques, Windows XP Edition (Paperback)
I purchased this book for my CIS 120 class (that is intro to micro-computers). This book is an excellent teaching guide to learn everything there is to know about Microsoft Office software. It is very detailed and it gives you examples and you will learn hands on. This is an excellent book for anyone that need to learn or even need a refresher course. This book have step-by-step instructions. I highly recommend this book.

Learn Microsoft Office 2007-- step by step,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Microsoft Office 2007: Introductory Concepts and Techniques, Windows XP Edition (Paperback)
Microsoft Office 2007 by Shelly Cashman. This is one of the best books I have ever bought to learn the ins and outs of using Office 2007. I had used older versions of M$ Office, but I had to
buy this one for a college course. I thought the book was pretty expensive, but it takes a person who has never used Office software step by step through examples and explains every detail. I am very much computer literate, do PC repairs etc. but it is one thing to repair a PC and another to learn a program with so many bells and whistles as Microsoft Office 2007. She has an Website where more information can be obtained to go along with the book. It has been a couple of years now since I use the book. The version I used was for Windows XP, but that should make no difference. I have to rate this book with five stars. For a person who already thinks they know how to use Office 2007 with all the graphics etc., maybe they could find a book that costs less and geared more for advanced users. But I'm not looking. -:) For me, this was perfect!
