2.0 out of 5 stars It did not go into detail on some subjects, October 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Running Microsoft Word for Windows (Select Editions) (Paperback)

The book summarizes on subjects rather than goes into detail on certain topics. I believe it's a book for beginners and not for experienced users. In one case, I was searching for how to format numbers in cells in a table. The book mentioned nothing about this. I was also searching how to calculate a column in a table using the sum function with rows containing no value and the book did not go into calculating tables very much. Overall, the book help me answer a few of my questions but not most of them.

3.0 out of 5 stars Basic information missing from this book., December 9, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Running Microsoft Word for Windows (Select Editions) (Paperback)

I'm trying to learn Word 97 from this book and cannot locate a single bit of information about the tab icon on the left edge of ruler. The book makes absolutely no reference to this symbol or how to use it. I'm wondering now what else is missing, besides a phone number for who to call to ask questions about it. Very dismayed!!
