Office Textbooks
"Jim Gainsley" <jgainsley[ at ]rencocorp.com> 5/4/2007 7:45:53 PM
Anybody have any recommendations for Office 2007 textbooks? Mainly, we're
interested in Word 2007. We'd like something that gives as much nuts and
bolts as possible. We would also like a Ribbon map if there is one
someplace.

There are several excellent books available. Have you tried visiting your
local brick and mortar bookstore to see which suits your needs?

I thought it might save time to ask here first. Which do you like best?

It depends on exactly what it is that I want. I have some Dummies books
(okay but a bit too cute at times) and I have some of the Missing Manuals (I
really like these).

Seriously, with books, I've found that I need to look thru them and see if I
find the book's style and content something that suits my needs. Plus, I
have to admit, I look to see if it was written by a fellow MVP. That fact
can sway my decision quite a bit. (Yes, I mean that I am more likely to buy
the book. ;-) )

Okay, that's what I'm going to do... Thanks. I'd really like to find a site
map of the Word ribbons. Any thoughts?

Nope, but I might not mind something like that myself. Did you try Google?
