I have used Shelly Cashman's books since 1988. A step-by-step learning tool that you cannot go wrong with. After you used this book or any in the series you will not try another. The SAM Training Companion CD and the Fast Cards that are with the book are very helpful. The OTHER WAY BOXES AND QUICK REFERENCE SUMMARY can get you out of any situation you get yourself into. The IN THE LAB projects after each chapter are a excellent way to reinforce your skills.

When I need to learn something new or update my skills I reference Shelly Cashman Series first. Or I just do not learn it!!!

This is an excellent book for someone with a basic to moderate knowledge of office products who wants to learn more. The book does a good job of covering basic concepts and an excellent job of describing the different methods and shortcuts to perform a particular task.

it got in at a pretty good pace but it was in a rather ugly condition.

Office: Premium Edition was purchased for a required graduate computer class. I'm pretty savvy with all the office products (so I thought) and know quite a few "tricks." When I started going through this book it was quite refreshing to have a "how to" book that is REALLY user friendly! This book caters from the Novice to the Experienced. Now I know why it is considered premium! Purchase of this book is really an investment as well as a time-saver.Microsoft Office 2003: Introductory Concepts and Techniques

I have this book and one other by shelly cashman on office also. Same book but a different edition ( has different exercises to work on). I liked this book. Very concise, with step by step instructions to show you how to complete a given project to complete. It was very helpful for my class and it taught me things I didn't even know you could do in excel and access. All pages are glossy with lots of screen shots. Very heavy book to lug around all day, but well worth the information.
