5.0 out of 5 stars Great Informative Material!, April 18, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Microsoft Office 2010: Introductory (Shelly Cashman) (Paperback)
Well, I reluctantly purchased this book before my computer class... then realized later that the spiral version I received did NOT come with the SAM software, which was REQUIRED for my class... so I had to drop an extra $85 on the key code (yes, just some numbers) I was under the assumption this book had everything I needed for this course, but I was disappointed that it did not.

That aside, this book was VERY informative... even though I was already familiar with Word, it really helped me understand other areas of Office as well. I definitely picked up a handful of new things along the way and I'm glad to have this book in my library for future reference for myself or my wife!

3.0 out of 5 stars Microsoft Office 2010: Introductory (Shelly Cashman Series(r), August 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
It definitely is a thorough textbook. I am sure if anyone is taking a class this is a perfect textbook for them. I really wanted more of a reference book on the new MS Office 2010, where I could look something up and see clear explanation of how to proceed and learn from it. I'm not satisfied with the book for what I need, but it certainly is full of examples with questions, quizzes, and I'm sure a great workbook for class.
