This book does a good job of explaining how to use the most common features of Office-2000. The author develops the each section in a systematic way. This book is helpful if you are new to the Office environment.
If you have been using Office-2000 or an earlier version, unfortunately this book does not add much to what you already know.
Users who are looking for more advanced applications of Access, Excel, or Outlook Express, this book is not for you.
I would have also liked if the author had talked a bit about FrontPage.
