Le livre des presentations
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 2004-01-15
Les graphiques faites a l'aide de l'ordinateur attirent les gens. A cause du style constant et des couleurs contemporaines, elles aident aux gens de se rendre compte du saillant, de comprendre le but, et de s'en amuser. Quant aux mots, les caracteres se lisent mieux lorsqu'on se sert du 24-point dans les titres, du 18 dans les soustitres, et du 14 dans tout le reste. Il est plus impactant de choisir le style sans serif dans les titres, le style avec serif dans les textes, surtout lorsqu'on les met en Book antigua, Bookman, Courier new, Garamond, ou Old style. Il est aussi plus impactant de se servir des mots, des frases et des paragraphes plutot courts. Car les graphiques frequentes et convenables ne marchent qu'avec le parler de tous les jours, l'organisation simple, et les mots precis.

MICROSOFT POWERPOINT 2000: PRESENTATION GRAPHICS WITH IMPACT always get their audience. Just let the AutoContent Wizard guide structure and style from defining the purpose to developing the topic, researching the subject, analyzing the audience, supporting and outlining the points, using visual aids, and delivering the message. Let WordArt special effects rotate, shadow or 3-D text in a consistent design across slides. Let color impact with meaning. Let font sizes be readable: 24 point for titles, 18 point for subtitles, and 14 point for all else. Let titles and headings favor sans serif fonts: the little lines on Book Antigua, Bookman Old Style, Courier New and Garamond serif fonts work better in helping readers to track text. Let paragraphs left align, titles center, and white space set off text. Let body language and conversational speech back up presentation graphics and text. Once again Microsoft has come up with all the information you need in a beautifully organized reader-friendly format. This encyclopedic book consolidates but does leave space on the shelf for Rebecca Bridges Altman's POWERPOINT 2000/98, Brian Reilly's CREATE POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS IN A WEEKEND, Patrice-Anne Rutledge's USING MICROSOFT POWERPOINT 2000, and Colotta Witherspoon's POWERPOINT 2000 FAST AND EASY.

When I bought my digital camcorder, I wanted to learn how to quickly get up to speed with Movie Maker so I could share my movies. This author really knows what he's talking about, and it made my life a whole lot easier. This is a "must buy" for anyone who wants to make their own movies in Windows!

Jan Ozer has done it again. A well written, easy to understand book is a "must have" for anyone using MyDVD. Book has lots of visuals and is written in such a way that even the average user will be able to use MyDVD to the fullest in no time at all. Very reasonably priced also. Two thumbs up!

MyDVD is now a complete product!

An absolute must for MyDVD users. Where Sonic has done a great job in software design, it has failed terribly in documentation. Ozer has filled that gap with a book that takes you from A to Z with easy flow and great use of screen captures. Highly recommended. It is the documentation Sonic should have included with its product.

My boss asked me to develop a leave system. I have no experience about Access VBA before. I bought a lot of books. However most of them are too thick and theoretical. No step by step examples are provided. Fortunately after reading this one, I can finish my task now.

Microsoft Access 2000 with Visual Basic for Applications
Helpful Votes: 28 out of 28 total.
Review Date: 2002-04-20
I consider this book to be ideal for people needing real hands on knowledge of Access. I'm using it in self-study to learn advanced concepts and VBA. I feel this is the ideal text for the self-learner.

This is a superbly organized and clearly written book that anyone with an intermediate knowledge of Access who's interested in moving forward into VBA will appreciate. The figures and illustrations are well-integrated with the text, allowng the pictures and the words to work together to improve the knowledge of the reader. It's a good balance between theory and practice. It's difficult to point out specific qualities. In short, I think the strength of this book lies in it's organization and clarity of text.

The "Reference Window" concept gives a general overview of the procedure being taught. This has helped me understand the "big picture" and gives me ideas on using the concepts in my existing databases. The book is also a gold mine of good ideas that I'll be able to incorporate into my databases. Additionally, a well-detailed table of contents and good organization makes it fairly easy to find what you're looking for. All the above makes this book a keeper for future reference.

Technical concepts and overviews enhance the ability for the reader to learn some very challenging procedures. They are presented on an "as needed" basis and in sufficient quantity to increase understanding without being technically overwhelming.

In all the books I have on newsletter design, this has been the most beneficial! It offers many great examples in full color stating what each design has to offer. It has lots of tips and addresses each part that goes into newsletters from nameplates to the mailing panel. I wish they would come out with a new one!

Great for Designing Newsletter Style Websites!
Helpful Votes: 28 out of 30 total.
Review Date: 1998-08-02
     Good design and layout is important for the success of any Website. Websites are created to share information of one sort or another and do not follow any one design pattern. One popular design format for sharing information online that we should be familiar with is the newsletter style that is intended to communicate information in similar fashion as the common newsletters we get in the mail. Most news reporting Websites use this same format. Mark Beach and Elaine Floyd have written Newsletter Sourcebook to offer readers plenty of sample layouts and creative newsletter design assistance.

     The book measures 8 1/2" by 11" and contains many full-colored examples of newsletter layouts and design tips. Many of the samples can be easily adapted for Website design purposes. Although this book is not intended to deal entirely with Website design principles, the placement of graphic images, the effective use of colors, the creative use of columns, the struc! ture of text, and font selection can assist Website designers to produce top-notch newsletter Websites. A number of Website screen shots are provided to display the impact made by online newsletters.

     With a little re-working this book could easily pass for a Website design handbook. The advantages of using this book are crystal clear. The authors have been in the newsletter business for many years. This book is proof of it. Their experience is demonstrated by the detailed work exhibited throughout. Anyone can achieve similar results. Additionally, when time is short the Website designer can quickly thumb through this book for easy ideas to put to use. All that is necessary is basic knowledge of HTML programming and/or the use of good Website design software programs.

     Begin creating newsworthy Websites, newsletters, and other forms of promotional literature for yourself and for others with this great resource book today. This is a must-have book!

I have read several books on Office 2000 and I found that this book is the best book.The main reason I liked this book is that the Authors did a great job by placing the screen shots of the windows after the description of each topic so that the reader can understand easily. The book also covers almost every topic in Microsoft Office 2000 Package. It is a must read book for the people who want to become a master in Office 2000.

How else could anyone get so carried away with this work.

DataCAD is the greatest cad tool you will find for Architectural work and I outa know, I have TurboCad, Intellicad, Vector Works, and AutoCad, but 99% of my work is with DataCAD.

This book is NOT the manual that comes with the software, but I'm betting that it soon will be the OFFICIAL Official DataCAD manual.

Buy this book now, I have purchased two copies that have dissappeared ( well I loaned them out and can't seem to get them back ) so, looks like I'm gonna make a repeat-repeat purchase.
