I did not learn ONE new thing from this book. Been using 2001 for a few months now and already know the basics.

Book may serve newbies well but offers NO instruction on advanced features.

What we need is a Manual like Microsoft used to ship that covers EVERYTHING.

I have waited 2-3 months for this and find it useless. Sorry to be negative but want a lap-reading book that covers the software from A to Z.

This is a very well presented guide to using the new Office suite. It contains very useful tips that even experienced users of earlier versions will find useful. I made severeal beneficial changes to my preferences as a result. It is a very well illustrated book that can be used as a reference guide as well as being read. The authors provide contact information so that more esoteric problems can be addressed. I have just used it to learn how to create hyperlinks and how to use sounds from other email clients in the Entourage email suite. I recommend this large paperbook as a good starting point for learning more about the capabilities of the software.

I bought a new computer and a new Office:mac 2001 and didn't know where to go from there! Then I purchased a copy of Microsoft Office:mac2001"Running." I started with Chapter 2 and am up to Chapter 25. I do a little learning every day. It's like I have my own classroom. Even for such a novice as me, the explanations are very clear, and some day I expect to be able to publish my own cookbook. All the Formatting Tools, the Address Book, E-Mail, how to costomize your work, Tables, columns, and graphics. It's all so clear and such fun to learn! In other words, I like this book.

This book is a definite must for someone who has never dreamed of using PC applications. Why would you if you own an iMac and its software can/will do what most Windows apps. will accomplish? If upgrading from Office 98 then this is a mere dress up to some already great applications. Entourage is the best email client and the other system apps. are superior for accomplishing any task as it relates to work OR fun! Highly recommend this book to enhance a great product to its fullest.
