Are you a power user? Special Edition: Using Microsoft Office 2000 has what you're looking for: it will let you open up the hood and get your hands dirty tuning Office to run your way. 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 most nervous will find Special Edition a goldmine 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. 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
