Wordasaurus QuickAnswer Guide The System for Mastering Microsoft Word Author:Robert J. Ringer The Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide: The System for Mastering Microsoft Word (based on Word for Windows 95, Version 7.0) is totally different from any other computer reference guide on the market. It is a remarkable combination of simplicity and preciseness. It is not a tutorial or teaching manual, but a true reference guide that can be used m... more »uch like a thesaurus or dictionary. If you're like most Microsoft Word users, you've probably become accustomed to poking around in Microsoft Word just enough to satisfy your immediate needs rather than waste time trying to study poorly organized, hard-to-understand manuals written by "experts." That's because when you're in the middle of an important document, the last thing in the world you can afford to do is get sidetracked searching for the answer to a simple question. You want to be able to quickly access what you need to know and get on with your work. Through its Syndex(tm) Function Finder, the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide eliminates those long, painful searches that all computer users have come to dread. Figuratively speaking, the Syndex Function Finder is a union of two concepts: thesaurus and index. Unlike an index, however, the Syndex Function Finder is located in the front of the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide where you can quickly access it. It's the equivalent of pressing a shortcut button on your computer. For example, whether you look up "Find bookmark," "Go to bookmark," or "Bookmark, locate" in the Syndex Function Finder, you will promptly be directed to "Bookmark, find," the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide's description for finding a bookmark. In other words, the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide doesn't expect you to have to guess at how it has alphabetically listed a function. Instead, it tries to anticipate every possible word or phrase you might think of when looking for an answer to your question so it can accommodate your thinking. Suppose you want to perform a certain Word function, but don't know how to do it. You know from past experience that to find the answer in a typical manual, reference guide, or help menu will take a lot of time-if, indeed, you can find it at all. Worse, if you do find the answer, it's oftentimes confusing. Now, the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide offers a quick and easy solution to your problem. To find the answer you're looking for, simply: 1. Look up the function in alphabetical order, much as you would in a thesaurus. Because there are more than 2,300 alternative listings for functions, almost any wording you can think of to describe the function you want to know about will quickly lead you to the right page. 2. When you find the function, follow the simple, step-by-step instructions that show you precisely and simply how to perform it. Whether you're a keyboard or mouse user, no problem. Instructions for each method are listed side by side. With the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide, long, frustrating searches are past history. Instead, you'll find what you need to know in seconds. And, best of all, there is no studying to do and no extraneous words to contend with-just straightforward information that tells you exactly what to press or click. You'll never be confused about what keystrokes or mouse commands are required. And, of course, the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide doesn't flop around on (or fall off of) your desk. Because it's spiral bound, it folds back on itself and lies flat next to your computer where you can quickly access it as you work. The unique concept of the Wordasaurus Quick-Answer Guide saves you time and money by delivering the answers you need with remarkable quickness, simplicity, and clarity. It's an indispensable tool for beginners, experts, and everyone in between. In fact, it's much like learning a foreign language while living in another country; you become a Word master as you do your regular, day-to-day work.« less
