To the surprise of most Mac fans, the number one bestselling
Macintosh software is Microsoft Office for the Macintosh. It's by
far the most popular Macintosh software, and the first software
purchase a new Mac user is likely to make. And for the first time,
Office 2001 comes without a single page of printed instructions.
The packaging is a five- inch-square clear plastic case housing the
CD-ROM and little else. Fortunately, Pogue Press/O'Reilly is once
again ready to embrace the befuddled and overwhelmed--with "Office
2001 for Macintosh: The Missing Manual." It tackles each of the
primary Office applications with depth, humor, and clarity, and
provides relief for the hapless Mac user who'd rather read
professionally written printed instructions than hunt through a
maze of personality-free help screens.
The book is structured to help the beginner as well as the
seasoned user. Part One provides an overview of Word. From "What's
New," to "Basic Word Processing," to "Document Design," to
"Advanced Word Processing"--with in-depth details on creating Web
pages and performing mail merges using Word. Part Two covers the
new Palm-syncable calendar in Entourage, including all aspects of
email, how to best use the calendar and address book, and crucial
information on the Palm Hotsync. Part three explains all the finer
points of Excel, including Microsoft's exciting new "List Manager,"
specifically designed for creating and manipulating lists without
the prerequisite of learning spreadsheet tools.
"Office 2001 for Macintosh: The Missing Manual" is coauthored by
a dream team of Missing Manual alumni: David Reynolds, executive
editor of "MacAddict" magazine and coauthor of
"AppleWorks 6: The Missing Manual," and Nan Barber, whose
efforts as the copy editor of the first four Missing Manual titles
gave her an intuitive feeling for the friendly, funny,
authoritative voice of the series. Once again, the authors are
joined by series founder David Pogue, who has closely edited the
book to ensure excellence of depth, accuracy, and prose.
