An overview of the latest version of the word processing application describes the new features and capabilities of Word 2007 and furnishes guidance and tips on how to work with data to set up complicated macros, integrating graphics and tables, and working with collaboration tools.
This book is not intended to be an "Everything you will ever need to know" about Microsoft Word 2007, although in some cases it might be. It is as the name implies a "beginner's guide" to Word 2007. This book has two purposes: First to provide the inexperienced user with a working knowledge of Word 2007, so Word becomes more that just a way to write a letter. The second purpose is to explain the new user interface, the Ribbon. I hope this helps.
Word 2007: Beyond the Manual is written for the experienced Word user who would find an introductory manual boring, condescending, and a waste of time. Basic features of word-processing in general or of Word in particular are not discussed. Features new to Word 2007 are emphasized, as are complex features that, though available in earlier versions of Word, were not readily accessible. The narrative is fast-paced, concise, and respectful of the reader’s familiarity with earlier versions of the program.

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 and use. Unfortunately, Microsoft's documentation is as scant as ever, so even though you will be able to find advanced features, you might not know what to do with them. Word 2007: The Missing Manual, written specifically for this version of the software, explains basics like how to create documents, enter and edit text, format, print, and fax. You will will also learn how to create sophisticated page layouts, insert forms and tables, use graphics, and create book-length documents with outlines and Master Documents. Coverage also includes how to share documents with other people and programs, create web pages, automate documents with fields, and automate tasks with macros and the Visual Basic scripting language. This book shows you how to do it all.
