Quick Course in Mictrosoft Excell 2000
The book presents the information in a very clear and helpful format.The book was for another person so I have not used the text myself.The receiver was grateful and excited about receiving the book.

Great Intro To What Excel Can Do for people with basic Office Skills
A friend at work gave me this book. It's a great little intro to excel basics and gives you a taste of the more advanced functions as well. This is a great overview for anyone interested in exploring the basic functions of excel. I used what I learned to build some nifty spreadsheets for my department. Before I started with this book I had very limited experience with Excel and this got me proficient with the basic range of excel functions and more. Even used my knowledge in a job interview test and I got the job!

An excellent introductory tutorial.
I had tried reading through the entire list of Excel tutorials at the local library.All of them were disappointing to me, as they spent so much time extolling the glories of Excel that they never stopped to tell you what Excel was actually good for!And then they jumped right into complicated snippets of examples that were unrelated to anything in the real world, or even each other.These snippets were again designed to show off the glories of Excel, not to do anything practical, like build an actual real-life spreadsheet.

As a programmer by profession, I always liked to "roll my own" solutions, using Visual Basic, MS Access, C++, whatever was at hand.And I've done some pretty fancy applications, including using MS Chart for graphing purposes.But those were mostly custom applications that Excel couldn't handle.

I must say, however, now that I've read this book and have actually discovered what Excel is good for, it can certainly handle much more than I had supposed!I will be using Excel from now on for various financial applications instead of relying on my programming skills with VB and Access.

The book begins with a basic spread sheet, which carries you all the way through to the final chapter, much like an accounting project in junior college might.And that was a welcome relief from those other tutorials.No dis-jointed jumping around from one unrelated example to the next exists here (as a reference guide might use).You follow the basic spreadsheet from chapter one all the way through to the final chapter, which builds in complexity, complete with pivot tables, and your understanding of Excel is added to as you go.

If you want to learn the basics of Excel, or just understand what this program is good for (as I wanted to know) this is the book for you.You can easily master the material in two weeks, or less, especially if you already have a basic understanding of computer programming.

All in all, an excellent primer. ... Read more

Websites Made Easy at Last
Leave it to the Microsoft folks to figure out just how to explain to the general populace how to create a website without going all geeky or making me feel like my IQ was less than room temperature. A well-balanced manual with easy to follow exercises.

EXCELLENT FOR BEGINNERS
I consider myself to be very computer literate, but my experience lies in using programs, not creating them.I have great skills on other MS Office products, but the few times I'd played with FrontPage ended in frustration.Finally, with an urge to increase my skillset, I acquired this book and took the dive.

I went through the book in four days and completed all the projects.This book is very well designed and the coursework progresses logically.I've seen too many self-learning books that ask a reader to read a later chapter in order to understand what to do in an earlier chapter.That's not efficient.This book is!

Word of warning: I noticed a few errors in the book that might frustrate novice self-learners.Sometimes a small, but critical, step is left out of the explanation.If you don't realize the ommission, you could waste a lot of time trying to figure out what went wrong.Other than that, I highly recommend this book.

Excellent Starting Point for FrontPage 2000
I have been hacking at FrontPage for quite awhile with little sucess. This book tells you the what and how you need to get started. I like this book because there is almost no extraneous content. I read through it and had the sample web site done in two days. Then I went back and did it one more time. This book is worth buying.

Comprehensive training guide
This is ideal for anyone who, like me, has absolutely no idea where to start. Its basic instruction coupled with a well planned tutorial keep the interest there and before you know it you've made your first site. There are a few errors which take a bit of working around and can be a bitbewildering to a complete novice. But in the main I strongly recommend thisto anyone who just wants to learn the basics of web design.

Great Starting Point
Good book for starting, but does have some errors and not clear at times as to what the author is wanting you to do.But for the basics, it is one of the easiest books that I have read.Gets you up and going fast, andshows you the basics.

Some of the errors, typos and their screen, doesnot match yours. (Entered the work three times and still did not match). Plus if things don't match, the author does not tell you how to fix theproblem or where to look.

Still all in all it is a good book to learnfrom. ... Read more
