I bought Word for Windows when it first came out.  I hardly ever
look at manuals and when I do, I always find what I need.  Learning
the programming language in WFW is all most impossible using the
manual supplied with WFW.  The manual just plain stinks.  It's the
worst manual I have ever seen.

I just got a brochure from the Microsoft Press.  This is a little 
booklet that advertises books for Windows, Word for Windows, and Excel.
There are four books for WFW.  


My Question:
  Isn't it corrupt to provide a useless and unorganized manual 
  (intentional?) and at the same time provide a better manual for
  money? For the money I spent on WFW I should of at least have 
  received a useful manual.


Note:
  I have nothing but this against Microsoft.  I feel their programs
  are pretty dame good even WFW, except for the annoying auto-backup 
  that is really not automatic.
