I have the older versiopn of Powerpoint but have never really learned to use it. I will be making more presentations though over the next few months and thought I really needed to learn how to do simple slides, but not just with text. This book was just great - very easy to follow - and short, giving me just the information I needed. I have now constructed several presentations, using color backgrounds, adding pictures etc. etc. Couldn't have been easier - but I doubt I could have figured it out as well on my own.
Saved the cost of a course and picked it up fast!

I was going to take a course to learn powerpoint, but the times were all wrong for me, so I ordered this nifty book and with its help put together my first powerpoint lecture with an outline and graphics. It was a big hit with the audience and was easy to do. I think this book is terrific - and 2003 was fine for me - I still have Windows XP. Did this in May 2008.
