I can't seem to locate an ad for the book on Microsoft Word "The Definitive Guide to Microsoft Word" (or something like that--I don't call the exact title). Would someone be so kind and give me the publisher and ISBN for this text (the correct title would be nice as well)? Thanks. -- Peter Steele, Microcomputer Applications Analyst Acadia University, Wolfville, NS, Canada B0P1X0 (902)542-2201x121 UUCP: {uunet|watmath|utai|garfield}!dalcs!aucs!Peter BITNET: Peter@Acadia Internet: Peter%Acadia.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU

Thanks. > >-- >Peter Steele, Microcomputer Applications Analyst The real title is: Working with WORD. (The rest is a sub-title). It's an attractive Blue background with pink to lavender on the WORD part (which is about all you'll notice on the bookshelf). Authors are Chris Kinata and Gordon McComb. It's a great book to sit down and read, but don't expect to use it as a well-indexed reference. For example, the advertisements I've seen point out how you can recover files you thought you had lost. I have yet to find that information and looked under every possible index term I could think of. Regarding the index: they produced the book with Word, so you can't expect a comprehensive index. Word doesn't do indexes well because it doesn't do memory well. Shirley Kehr
