About this title

Synopsis

""Web Publishing Step By Step Learning Kit"" provides two effective learning tools in one package to teach users how to harness the Web publishing tools and features of Microsoft Office applications, including Microsoft FrontPage 2000, PhotoDraw 2000, Publisher 2000, NetMeeting, and NetShow. It also covers the Web publishing features of Microsoft Excel 2000, Word 2000, and PowerPoint 2000. By providing both a print component, Web Publishing Step by Step, and multimedia training software, Web Publishing Step by Step Interactive, this powerful kit lets users match the most appropriate method to their learning style. The time-tested step by step training -- task-oriented, procedural, and self-paced -- is the perfect method for learning the powerful web publishing tools that Microsoft offers.

Review

Microsoft Office 2000 makes ample use of Web standards to provide collaboration and sophisticated data delivery. Step by Step Microsoft Web Publishing offers an entry-level tutorial to these features. It also serves as a reader-friendly introduction to Web publishing in general.

This package includes a CD-ROM that contains sample files for the exercises in the book as well as a multimedia training program. The interactive course is well-suited to Web novices. The course opens with the basics of Web pages and Web sites, and progresses though the basics of page design and layout to sharing documents and information from Office applications. The book also focuses on PhotoDraw 2000--Office's application that lets you create and manipulate photos and images for use on your Web sites.

While this training set is a great first step in the realm of Microsoft Web publishing, it approaches the topic from an Office 2000 user's perspective rather than a developer's. If you want to go beyond the basics, you'll also need to learn a bit about HTML and JavaScript--topics not covered here. --Stephen W. Plain

Topics covered: Web site planning, page layout, multimedia pages, forms, site management, image manipulation, and integration with Office 2000 applications.
