What do you want to write today? If you're using Office 2000, Running Microsoft Word 2000 can help you assemble that document better and faster than you'd have imagined. Designed as a reference rather than a tutorial, the book's format works best for everyone from the longtime Word user to the recent convert. Those who want a guided tutorial may want to look to Microsoft Word 2000 Step by Step instead; it will take you from the basics to the dizzying heights of Word 2000 mastery, making Running more accessible later on.

Running's smart indexing makes it a snap to find the tip, trick, diagram, or instructions you need to give your pages the right look, while the text's clarity will reduce time wasted trying to figure out what button or menu you need to use. Whether you want to find the one hotkey that'll save your sanity or step-by-step directions for creating a Web page, Running Microsoft Word 2000 will point you down the right path.

Since this is a Microsoft Press publication, you won't find many bugs, traps, or weaknesses mentioned; for these you'll need to get customer support or a book from another publisher. But for straightforward document creation and handling, this is as good a reference as you can get. --Rob Lightner
