Tired of Office books that read as though Microsoft employees wrote them?
Tired of books containing little more than you can pull from the Help
system?
If you answered yes to either of these questions, then you owe it to yourself
to get a copy of this book. Most books written on Microsoft products simply
parrot the information found in the Help files or the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
Not this book. It has been written by the Office Dream Team, Ed Bott and Woody
Leonhard, the most well recognized and respected authoring team in the business.
Even the Office development team at Microsoft listens when these guys speak! Not
only do Ed and Woody show you the best way to solve problems, they point out
what works and what doesn't with a no holds barred approach.
Unlike most CDs pasted into the back of computer books, this book offers one
that rivals the book in terms of value. You receive a FREE copy of Woody's
Office Power Pack (WOPR) - the #1 enhancement to Office. This software sells for
$49.99 but you get it for free here - no strings attached!
