Customer Reviews

No fluff, to the point
Office 2007 introduced the ribbon making getting up to speed a bit more challenging. Our office only held a brief hour demonstration to introduce 2007 to us. What I liked about this book, is it isn't one of those monster Bible/Inside Out books. About 3/4 of an inch thick, it offers brief explanations and tips to get you going on using Office 2007 more effectively and quickly. The book includes a CD with training vidoes, which are nice to view if you don't yet have 2007 up and want to see how it operates or like visuals. The book was precisely what I needed since I was pressed for time and needed to jump in immediately. It is a great starter and you can always buy the monster reference book later when you need to.

The title says it all...
Evan and Tiffany have done it! From dealing with volumes of daily emails, getting the most from your meetings, preparing your documents and working on shared-docs, this book has put it all in one place. They quickly, effectively run thru the new 2007 MS Office suite, showing new items, like the ribbon - which is the key in all the new Office product tool bars. I found the enclosed CD a great time-saver and a good way to see how Evan and Tiffany put their words into action.
If you are the Office guru in the office and want the jump on your fellow workers (or just want people to ask how do you do THAT in MS Office) then pick up a copy...
