Microsoft Office Word 2007 On Demand Reviews
Customer Rating:Summary: Better Than All The Others
Comment: This book has the best mix of features. At a few hundred pages in length, it covers numerous topics that will interest even the advanced users of Microsoft Word 2007. Each topic is kept to a manageable size, covered in 1 or 2 pages most of the time.
An especially nice feature of this book is that it uses COLOR while still being very reasonably priced. In the year 2007 it is inexcusable for publishers to continue using only black and white or blue, black, and white. When was the last time you used a monochrome computer? Not in this decade or the last. So why bother with monochrome books?
Readers who are interested in becoming certified with Word 2007 will enjoy this book. Each of the required Microsoft objectives is clearly identified with a small box, usually on the left hand page. As you prepare and review for the exam all you have to do is look for the pages with the Microsoft Certified Application Specialist box and then practice the information on these pages.
Customer Rating:
Summary: I needed more detail than this format allows
Comment: I like the format of this series, but it didn't provide enough detail for my needs. My three-star rating is not an indictment of the content, which is excellent. Rather, it's simply a caution to others that if you need lots of detail to get your Word 2007 documents out the door, this series may not be the best for you. However, if you're looking for an in-depth overview, this is a good book. I returned my copy to Amazon shortly after receiving it in February.
