Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 in 24 Hours

By Alexandria Haddad and Christopher Haddad

Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 in 24 Hours will deliver on the premise that the user can become fully versed in the application in 24 easy, one-hour lessons. The book will include not only explain all of the skills and concepts in the context of real work situations, but also how to apply them to real-world presentations. Additionally, the book will highlight the little details that frustrate users at all levels as they try to be productive. The book will also include workarounds for new and current features that might work better on paper than in real life. The new interface for PowerPoint will open up the power of this program to many users who many not have used it before or who may have thought that the program didn't suit their needs. So while the new interface is easier to use and more intuitive, there should be increased book sales on PowerPoint as users relearn their skills. In addition, PowerPoint now boasts an incredibly functional web publishing model. The book will show users how PowerPoint can become their web publishing tool of choice for items like interactive presentations and brochures.

Customer Reviews

Sams is a great series

This is the third title in the "Sams Teach Yourself..." series that I've purchased, and there's no doubt that this series is the best and easiest to use of all the software do-it-yourself guides. "Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 in 24 Hours" got me up and going in PowerPoint 2000 in a week. I know the title says 24 hours, but, hey, I never said I was swift. The language is free of techno-jargon and the instructions are very easy to follow. This is a great guide to anyone trying to get started on PowerPoint.
