Great Layout---but Not Enough Information For Me.
22 September, 2009
I think these books are great---but I can't give this boook five stars because it covers so little of what I want to know about Word 2007. The better plan would be to have Word 2007 Ultra beginner (the beginners version for those who don't know how to highlight) and Word 2007 Advanced (for those of us who do). I was only able to use 10 pages of the book and I am so frustrated because I know there are cool things you can do in Word, like find all your comments at once. Nevertheless, I did learn how to put a comment in a document, which I could not figure out from the Word 2007 for Dummies book with his many, many, many, excessive words and verbage and did I say words and more words (and no screenshots). To the Dummies people: a screenshot paints a thousand words.
Here's what you get in the 13 Chapters:
1.) Opening Word
2.) Manage Documents: Various ways to open and close---there are a couple of sections you might not know
3.) Editing Text: (You really will start yawning because they tell you how to insert blank lines in a document---not kidding---I realize there is someone out there who does not know that and it is valuable for THEM to learn, but MOST OF US can press return.
4.) Proofreading: In this chapter you learn how to make comments and delete comments and find comments, but, as I said, there is a way to do it on the right slider and that's sophisticated and I WANT SOMEONE TO TEACH ME THAT SORT OF THING, not how to check spelling and grammar, also in this chapter. So many of the topics are a right click away on the screen when you are working in word.
5) Format text---big yawn---how to change the size of your fonts, hihglight them, bold, italic, underline---it pretty much is more basic than basic
6 & 7) Formatting paragraphs & pages--I know there are some really important things to learn about sections and formatting and this is where I wanted a lot of help---but I got about 10 pages out of it.
8.) Printing---I don't need a chapter for this
9 & 10) Tables, charts, and art---I don't use any of this
11) Customize word---macros, keyboard shortcuts, etc
12.) Mass mailings---I'm sure this is vital for some folks, but not me
13.) Emailing-- how to set up a doc as a web page, emailing a doc (ultra beginners book) and hyperlinks
I think MOST people use word for wordprocessing---nothing fancy---just let me create a document and put page numbers on it and maybe share it with some people. I'd just like to know how to do the things I know Word can do, and I did not get that from this book.

Great Book!

Received "Teach Yourself Visually" for an early birthday present and love it. It is easy to find answers to your questions and hasn't failed me yet. I'm a visual learner and the illustrations in the book make commands easy to understand. I highly recommend purchasing it because I couldn't find answers under the help section of Word.

Fantastic

This is a great book for anyone wanting to learn Word 2007. The screen illustrations with their numbered arrows make the instructions easy to follow. This feature also makes the book an excellent reference manual, to keep near your computer. No longer do you have to wade through paragraph after paragraph, trying to find the relevant material. The screen-shots are right there, showing which buttons to click on, allowing you to quickly access the feature that you want to use. I am extremely pleased with this purchase.

Another Great Book
15 December, 2009
Again Microsoft Word is another tool I've never had to use so much since I started college. I bought Teach Yourself Visually Mircrosoft Word 2007 and it has helped me along the way nicely. Of course my daughter already know how to use it for her English class. She has to type papers everyday. So do I for my business classes as well. Teach Yourself Visually Word 2007 explaines things I had questions to and always asked "How do I make it do that?" Now I know. I am glad I bought it.
