Description: "[This book] is a complete survey of the Microsoft Office 2007 Suite. The text begins with basic computer concepts, and then introduces Windows and surveys Office 2007 applications. Students are introduced to Internet Explorer 7.0, Microsoft Office Outlook, Work, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access. The text ends with a comprehensive integration project in which students use the Office applications in collaboration, leveraging the capabilities of each to prepare for a meeting. Concise concept discussions [are] followed by Hands-On exercises that give students experience with those concepts right away. Figures are always in close context with the text so no figure numbers are necessary. Quick Reference sections summarize key tasks with generic steps that will work without repeating an exercise. These can be particularly useful during open-book tests. Hands-On exercises are carefully written and repeatedly tested to be absolutely reliable. Many exercise steps are illustrated with figures to make them easier to follow. Skill Builder exercises provide additional practice on key skills using less detailed exercise steps as the student progresses through the lesson."--Preface
