Microsoft Books

This book is a great book for people who are just beginning to use an integrated business office application or who are making the transition from another business application to the Microsoft Office Suite. It can be used as a self-paced tutorial or as a textbook for full or half semester Computer Literacy classes. A CD is provided that provides the student or instructor with data files that can be used to facilitate learning and avoid the tedious task of simply entering data. I rate it five stars.

In her typically superb fashion, Sue has crafted an indispensable reference that digs into the internals of Outlook. A few topics discussed: How Outlook stores data, User Profiles, PRF files (what are those? Buy the book to find out) security, and more.

One of the things that really stood out to me in this book was the Appendixes where you'll find details on policy settings, outlook registry settings and even how to disable various portions of the Outlook user interface.

Another excellent resource is chapter 5 that deals with Exchange connectivity. Outlook has steadily added new ways to talk to Exchange, all with their own set of Pro's and Con's. Personally, I think many companies have overlooked some of the options. Sue will help you navigate the various options and pick the right way to connect to Exchange.

The Conflict Desert Strom 2 strategy guide helps a lot because the game is very hard. If your having trouble beating the game you should definatly get this.

This book gives a deep insight into the Borland Object Windows Library. It covers a large number of items which are not covered in the Borland C++ 5.02 manuals. Highly recommendable for OWL programmers. Written in a nice style and also a good read.

This book is easier to follow because it has step by step pictures/instructions of what your screen should look like so you are more sure that you are on the right track.

I would definately recommend this book to someone trying to brush up/improve on their excel skills.

I got stuck a lot in this challenging game, especially when getting the gems. Noooo!!!! It's so hard!

HALLALUYAH!

This book takes a very practical guide to the real world development of a reasonably sophisticated Access 2.0 application. While the author assumes that the reader can create elementary tables and queries, the focus is on the complete development (largely through Access Basic) of one application that gives the reader an excellently balanced guide that covers issues without perhaps dwelling on the absolute completeness of other texts. This is not a reference book. It is a learning and doing book. Whilst Litwin, Getz et. al. (Access xx Developer's Handbook) may be the Access developers bible, Melissa Dunn's text is excellent for anyone wanting to "cut to the chase" of Access development and use other texts to perhaps supplement the issues that they might want to study further. Melissa's book is not for the absolute novice or someone that is uncomfortable with exploring the programmability of Access, but for everyone else this is a terrific way to learn how Access can work. ps. I would love to see an Access 95/97 version.

This is a very well written book by Dr. Wiley and Dr. Montgomery. They are not only good professors, but really care about how their students perform after they are out of college. This book is very clearly written to help anyone prepare for their future as a teacher. It will be much easier for students to display their achievements and abilities with these new e-portfolios created using powerpoint. What a great idea!!!

I found this booklet extremely helpful. If you don't have much experience with excel, this book is for you. It shows you quick and easy ways to set up a spreadsheet and you can easily adjust the spreadsheet to your fit needs.

This book is very easy.It teaches you everything you need to know.It is very simple unlike many of the others.I recomend this book to anybody.It is one of the best books in the world under this topic.
