Customer Reviews

I passed the senior mark over a decade ago. So, I should qualify for this book.

I have to admit that I used several versions before reading the book, so I cannot tell what it would be like to be introduced to Microsoft Office by this book. What I can tell is that it is good to have a book that tells you to you want to know but explains it differently. And I do not want to sound like a know-it-all snot, as I have learned a few especially useful things. I found the newer Office too simple and kept trying to do things the hard way. That will teach me to read first. We do not want to get Label Printing mixed up with mail-merge. The book is well organized, and if you have other “For Seniors” in easy steps books, this follows the same pattern. Just a note, I picked Microsoft 2013, so I did not have to keep paying a yearly fee. One mistake I made was installing it under an account that used an old email address and then changing email addresses, which forced a new account. Registered a product under the new account; to find that after that, you cannot transfer Microsoft 2013 from one account to the other. This book is excellent and good for historical information. 2013 is no longer supported, so at the time of this review, I am using Office 2019, still keeping away from that 365 thing.
