I'm Partial Becuase I Learn best from this Author

From rent houses to computers (and even to raising a handicapped child to give him room for the most potential in Disabling America ISBN #0785262253), I just am floored every time I read another book by this guy.Does he write 24 hours a day?Is he a genius on ALL subjects?Again, maybe I'm partial to his writing style or something, but let me say THIS book once again too my fear out of Office. Oh I could do all the usual word processing and e-mail. But when it came to formatting my husband's Excel worksheets or using Access, I was stumped until Perry showed me how in under 24 hours. What I like best about this book's examples is that they are not these huge business-world examples with tons of data. His examples are single worksheets and small databases such as the ones I'd create for myself and my family. And if I had a business, I would want to start small so I learned the fundamentals and then work my way up to bigger projects. Once again, I am indebted to this author. I strongly encourage you to read Teach Yourself Office 2003 in 24 Hours if you want to learn the REAL tricks and tools that help you do your daily computer tasks.

Perry is perhaps the leader in computer book writing

He keeps doing it. Every few months, another title is written by this Greg Perry. He's the Issaac Asimov of computer books! What, has this guy written 100 or more? I don't know but it seems like it. What gets me is that he keesp writing quality books, ones that I go back to reference, and between the lines he keeps a sense of humor to boot! Try to find THAT in a computer book, even a wishy-washy Dummies book the humor is often forced. If you used previous versions of Office but you upgraded to 2003, you might not think you need to read a book. Sure, Office 2003 is a cosmetic upgrade more than anything, but it's not fully one and this book is your KEY to making the most of the new version. It will NOT throw tons of material you'll never use. It won't throw fancy spreadsheets and database examples at you, it shows you how to make real ones to get the job done.
