Amazon.com Review
If you've decided that the professional edition of Microsoft Office 2000 suite best suits your needs, do yourself a favor and pick up Running Microsoft Office 2000 Professional as well. Combining the best features of an instruction manual and reference book, it will help both new and experienced Office users master and maintain the skills they'll need to get the most out of the Office 2000 applications.
From the basics of Windows navigation, it swiftly moves to the software features contained in the applications bundled in the professional edition: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Outlook, Publisher, and Small Business Tools. From inserting hyperlinks into your documents to adding entries to databases, every step of every function is outlined in clear text and pictorially represented by screen shots. If you're planning on using the Small Business Tools to streamline your financial and data work, Part VIII is a gold mine of hard-to-find information on running the Tools smoothly.
The book brings all the software together with tips for integrating Office programs and using binders to collate files neatly and easily. The indexing and cross-referencing makes finding just the trick you need a breeze, so make sure you have Running Microsoft Office 2000 Professional near your desk until your next upgrade. --Rob Lightner

Typical Microsoft,
By A Customer
This review is from: Running Microsoft Office 2000 Professional (Paperback)
After having this book for only one day, I gave up and returned it. There are numerous editing errors throughout. For instance, In the middle of the Outlook 2000 section, some color-coded guide tabs and page headings read "Access 2000".Also, the index refers to wrong or misplaced pages. Further searching reveals particular index entries are nowhere to be found. Clearly rushed to press without much editing or forethought. Office 2000 "Professional"? Hardly.

Complete Waste of Trees and Money!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Running Microsoft Office 2000 Premium (Paperback)
This book contained neither detailed nor summary information on either of the two progams I was using: Word and Front Page. It is not targeted at beginners or advanced users. Instead it is a hodge podge of topics; most of them irrelevant to what I wanted to do. Even though the book is physically huge it covers very little in total because there are so many programs involved.As context I have been using Word and Front Page since their very early versions. In Word I was simply trying to figure out why things were being formatted in such a strange way (I know--futile). For Front Page I was looking for an introduction to the new features and new interface. Save your money unless you need a colorful doorstop.

Great Introduction To Microsoft Office 2000,
By A Customer
This review is from: Running Microsoft Office 2000 (Paperback)
Book was very helpful at introducing me to the features of Microsoft Office 2000 Professional. I really liked that it explained all the operations available in the suite while placing a 2000 symbol next to features that were new within the 2000 version. This let me skip only to the new features that I wanted to learn about but provided me a reference book I could use for the whole application.
