Customer Reviews

top resource for Word users at all levels of expertise

On line help is OK in some situations, but if you are serious in wanting to use Word to its fullest capacity, try the OLD FASHIONED way, i.e., use a book. And I highly recommend "Mastering Word for Windows 95", by Ron Mansfield as that book. I am a diehard WordPerfect fan, but when the world has switched to Word, what can one do? But learning a new word processing program when you have mastered another and used it for over 10 years is like suddenly being asked to conduct all your activities in a foreign language. Yet, Mansfield's book makes that transition painless and almost pleasant. This book succeeds because it has obviously been written and revised in accordance with the experience of users. Thus you don't start out learning a process only to be stuck with an unfamiliar term or a reference to a button or menu that you can't find. Your problems and confusions have been anticipated. There are ample illustrations of the screen that comes up as you follow a process, so you feel that Mr. Mansfield is always at your shoulder. I started out hating Word when forced to use it, but Mr. Mansfield may make me a fan yet. In any event, I now use Word rather than the other way around.
