 Would prefer the hard copy November 24, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am very displeased espcially now that I have found out the Kindle version is only $2.31 cheaper than the hard copy. What a rip off! The pictures (figures)are also very hard to see on the Kindle screen. I am going to see if Amazon will let me erase the copy from my Kindle, the backup from Amazon and refund my money so I can buy the hard copy.
 A good general reference. August 21, 2008

If you want to be able to find out a little about most of the components of Office 2007, this is easier to use than the online Help. I wish there was a CD for faster look-up. (Just what is OneNote?)
 Not a good reference book August 19, 2008

This book has not been a useful reference book. It doesn't go into enough depth on any topic. If you have used Microsoft software, do not buy this book.
 Using Office 2007 August 5, 2008

The book seems well written, but not quite as detailed as I need. I see that I will need to buy the Using Word 2007 to get as much detail as I want. Still, this book gives a great overview of the whole suite and probably has a much info as most users will want.

I'm still getting to know the many changes in Microsoft Office Home/Student for 2007, but one thing I really appreciate is the ability to save documents as earlier versions of Word, like the 2003 or earlier versions. Computers that don't have 2007 versions of the Office components don't seem to be able to open the 2007 version files. Even my HP laptop with Windows Vista on board couldn't do more than read and print the Word 2007 files after the trial version had expired. I think being able to save docs in earlier versions is crucial! Beyond that I'm still learning to navigate around the menues, etc. I'm sure it's a great product, I just think the learning curve is a bit steep!
