The Good News and The Bad News

I taught classes of adults with this book. I had many complaints about the fact that it was difficult to follow. Some of the exercises were ambiguous and some were over wrought with typing. It did have poor planning on the organizational side. While it built on the previous exercises, sometimes...

Random organization, separates the teaching from the doing

I teach computer applications to 8th graders, and this book is a disappointment to me and my students. It is geared more toward the business worker. The order in which it teaches skills is completely random. For example, it teaches advanced operations such as how to create envelopes and...

Horrific

A good idea gone bad with terrible editing confusing instructions and an overall waste of time and a great contributor to frustration.Most of the time you are left hanging not understanding how or why with key points left out. Either teach step by step or don't attempt. What an unholy mess.

Frustration

The idea and principle of a step by step guide to something as complex as Office2000 is necessary and desirable. Especially when compared with the endless dry tomes that tell you all the neat things you can do without step by step instructions and exercises, such as the horrific attempts at...
