Microsoft Office 2003: Introductory Course

I have bought many text book the past 2 years and this is the first one that I really feel compelled to review a text book. You can really learn a lot of things from it. The step by step sections are taking you through the Microsoft Office programs such as Word Excel Access and PowerPoint. The ones that have written this book must be the ones that have designed "Office" because they describe exactly what you are about to see on the screen. If you buy the book used and the cd-rom is not included, you are in for a raw deal because you will not be able to do the step by step and the projects at the end of each chapter. Just get this book and spend a few minutes everyday with it. You will save many hours as you use the "Office" programs.

My daughter used this book in her computer course. I thought it was one of the best at demostrating how to use the MS office product efficiently and in combining MS Office applications to produce the best results. I plan to buy it for a relatively new user in my office.

I use this volume as the main textbook in my basic computer applications class. Both the students and I love it! Each lesson has overviews, review questions and projects. The book is both visual, giving step by step helpful hints as well being resourceful and informative. It is more organized than most text based Office books and more informative than the visual based books I have used. I highly recommend this book as a textbook for beginners!
