Self-Paced Training from Microsoft Press

Microsoft Word 6 for the Macintosh Step by Step

The Fastest Way to Learn Microsoft Word for the Macintosh

MICROSOFT WORD 6 FOR THE MACINTOSH STEP BY STEP, the most efficient way to
learn the latest version of the world's bestselling word processing
application for the Macintosh, has been completely updated for version 6
of the software. This new book-and-disk self-paced training package from
Microsoft Press is ideal for busy people who prefer to learn on their own
or don't have time to attend classroom training.

Whether they're new to Microsoft Word or upgrading from a previous version,
this proven training system helps readers find their best starting point.
New users can start at the beginning, learning basic concepts and key
commands before creating documents. Those upgrading from previous versions
can turn directly to sections that explore new version 6 features.

Readers Work at Their Own Pace

MICROSOFT WORD 6 FOR THE MACINTOSH STEP BY STEP is divided into 16
easy-to-use lessons. Each lesson takes as little as 20 minutes to
complete, is generously illustrated with real-world examples, and is fully
integrated with the practice files on disk. The first lessons present
basic concepts, and then the lessons progress toward more advanced topics.
Readers can go through the lessons in any order, skip lessons, and repeat
lessons later to brush up on specific skills. The "One Step Further"
section at the end of each lesson is a set of exercises that build on the
skills and topics covered in the lesson, often exploring a new option or
shortcut technique.

Several of the tasks readers will learn to accomplish with Microsoft Word
include:

* Creating documents and customizing the look of a page
* Adding graphics to dress up a document
* Using timesaving features such as Wizards and templates
* Using forms and creating customized online forms
* Creating and printing merged documents

A glossary makes looking up terms easy, and the comprehensive index helps
students and instructors quickly find information on any topic in the
book. An appendix explains how to customize the many options in Word 6 so
that the reader's settings will match those used in the book. To use the
practice files on the 720-KB, 3.5-inch disk, users will need Microsoft
Word 6 for the Macintosh and the operating system required to run it.
