In addition to comprehensive reference material covering all of the Office programs--even Visual Basic for Applications--you'll find a host of secrets, hidden features, and "hacks" you'll see nowhere else. Be warned: some of these tricks are for experienced users only. (One false move in the Windows Registry and you might find yourself looking at a reinstallation!) Don't be intimidated, though--even the timid will find Special Edition a gold mine of information and resources.
Great indexing lets you find what you need quickly, from absolute cell references to zooming, and the clear text and graphics will help you solve any problem--even ones you didn't know you had. The book comes with a CD-ROM containing Woody's Office Power Pack (a great set of Office utilities); the complete, searchable text of the book; and additional material covering Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and a bundle of cool third-party software that'll keep you busy for hours. If you've mastered the basics and want to improve your Office knowledge, let the professionals show you the way with Special Edition Using Microsoft Office 2000. --Rob Lightner
