Microsoft Office 2003 Rolls Out; Peachpit Rolls In—With Slew of New Visual QuickStart Guides for Every Product!

Popular task-based guides provide the key to Microsoft’s productivity suite: both collectively and in volumes covering individual applications.

Berkeley, CA - September 16, 2003 - Peachpit likes to be on time for a party, especially when it’s an Office party thrown by Microsoft! When Microsoft introduced its update to Office, Peachpit was right there with it, offering a Visual QuickStart Guide not only for the overall Office 2003 suite, but for many of its individual applications as well. Friendly, step-by-step instructions presented in a strong visual format have made these guides best-sellers since the series’ inception. While easy enough for absolute Office beginners, these books will also appeal to veteran users, who—thanks to the handy tabbed format—can skip directly to the features they’re interested in. These guides make the perfect companions to Microsoft’s newly enhanced and nearly ubiquitous Office 2003 product suite. Watch for these titles coming soon:
