Description:
In Word 97 for Windows for Dummies, author Dan Gookin injects the subject matter with a considerable dose of humor and carefully written advice. There's no need to worry about getting in over your head because the topics cover all of Word's most essential tasks--the ones you can't avoid. You get chatty, step-by-step instructions on navigating Word; copying, pasting, and deleting text; using Word's editing tools such as the Spell Checker and Find and Replace; saving and printing files; and formatting characters, paragraphs, and pages. You'll learn how to work with columns, tables, styles, and templates; import, export, and manage documents; perform mail merges; add graphics, borders, and shading; understand Word's Web tools; and use Word's built-in help tools such as Wizards and the Office Assistant. Icons throughout the book signal technical tips, reminders, shortcuts, warnings, and features that work with the Microsoft IntelliPoint Mouse. Gookin wraps up the book with lists of general tips, tricks, odd and useless features, shortcuts, and reminders. As in the rest of the book, most of these are geared toward users who are more familiar with a typewriter than with a word processor or PC.
