This is serious information for people who regularly use Word to edit serious material." -Tom Anderson, "Word Help for Professional Editors," Sacra Blue.

If you use Word to do your job, like me, and have wished that Word 'could only do this or only do that' . . . check it out." -Doug Clapp, PocketPCPress Jack M.
