It's an excellent tutorial on the various features of Word 4.0, taught one at a time. I would also recommend buying at least one copy of the reference manual as well -- almost without exception, the best tutorials are not the best reference manuals, and vice versa. Learn Word with the tutorial, use Word with the reference manual. Bill Cramer IEX Corporation Plano, Texas {uunet,convex,attctc}!iex!cramer
