1888. | Windows Vista: The Missing Manual By: David Pogue Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 27-DEC-2006 Insert Date: 13-JAN-2007 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Windows Vista: The Missing Manual Windows Vista is Microsoft's most important software release in
more than a decade. It offers users an abundance of new and
upgraded features that were more than five years in the making: a
gorgeous, glass-like visual overhaul; superior searching and
organization tools; a multimedia and collaboration suite; and above
all, a massive, top-to-bottom security-shield overhaul. There's
scarcely a single feature of the older versions of Windows that
hasn't been tweaked, overhauled, or replaced entirely.But when users first encounter this beautiful new operating

Compared to industrial-strength database products such as
Microsoft's SQL Server, Access is a breeze to use. It runs on PCs
rather than servers and is ideal for small- to mid-sized businesses
and households. But Access is still intimidating to learn. It
doesn't help that each new version crammed in yet another set of
features; so many, in fact, that even the pros don't know where to
find them all. Access 2007 breaks this pattern with some of the
most dramatic changes users have seen since Office 95. Most obvious
is the thoroughly redesigned user interface, with its tabbed
toolbar (or...

Microsoft Word has grown considerably in power, sophistication and
capability over the past decade, but one thing that hasn't changed
since the early '90s is its user interface. The simple toolbar in
version 2.0 has been packed with so many features since then that
few users know where to find them all. Consequently, more and more
people are looking for "insider" tips that will allow them to use
these advanced and often hidden features. Microsoft has addressed
this problem in Word 2007 by radically redesigning the user
interface with a tabbed toolbar that makes every feature easy to
locate...

Like every other application in Microsoft Office suite, PowerPoint
is loaded with features. So many, in fact, that even veterans don't
know where to find them all. Microsoft solved this problem in
PowerPoint 2007 by redesigning the user interface with a tabbed
toolbar that makes features easy to locate and use. PowerPoint 2007
also boasts improved graphics, additional templates, the ability to
save custom layouts, and improved collaboration through SharePoint.
One thing Microsoft hasn't improved is its poor documentation. To
learn the ins and outs of all the features in PowerPoint...

Microsoft Excel continues to grow in power, sophistication, and
capability, but one thing that has changed very little since the
early '90s is its user interface. The once-simple toolbar has been
packed with so many features over the years that few users know
where to find them all. Microsoft has addressed this problem in
Excel 2007 by radically redesigning the user interface with a
tabbed toolbar that makes every feature easy to locate and use.
Unfortunately, Microsoft's documentation is as scant as ever, so
even if users can find advanced features, they probably won't know
what to do with...
