Product Description
From Amazon
Macs are fun--they even smile--but, before long, you'll find yourself merrily mousing away on your Mac when the dark strains of required productivity become audible. What to do? AppleWorks most likely includes the bit of software you need to get your work done, and AppleWorks 6 for Dummies can show you how to use that suite of applications in no time at all. Before you know it, you'll be back to listening to MP3s while you surf the Internet.
In this book, a couple of Mac experts (including Mac demigod Bob LeVitus) explain how to use the productivity applications that make up AppleWorks, getting straight to the point without sounding dry or dull. Whether you're interested in using the index to locate the authors' coverage of how to group objects in AppleWorks' paint program, or in following along as they reveal the intricacies of spreadsheet design, you'll be pleased by what you find here. The authors have written lots of easy-to-follow procedures, which include information on what you should do and what you should see as a result, and sprinkled their chapters with solid tips. These tips explain how to create image collections, for example, and how to avoid common pitfalls in database design. --David Wall
Topics covered: How to use the applications in AppleWorks 6, including the word processor, spreadsheet, database, graphics tools, and Internet applications. Adequate attention goes to the programs' extensive integration, as well as to utility operations, such as printing and file management.
Book Description
Advice from this leading Mac authority helps you if you're new to the Mac and need to get up to speed fast. For starters, you definitely need to know a few basics about the software suite that came with your iMac or iBook. Try spreadsheets and word processing, and then add drawings and charts. But if you really want to impress your peers, whip out your AppleWorks paintbrushes and palettes. And you'll be fully wielding your new creation tool when you set up an address book database, design a Web page, or build a business presentation.
