Desktop Resources from Microsoft

• Interactive Guides for Access, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and Word - If you want to explore the rich, new design with some guidance, try the interactive guides. You can run the guides right on the Microsoft web site or you download them to your own computer for use any time you like.

• Ribbon Mapping Workbooks - If you prefer to see a table of all Office 2003 menu and toolbar commands and their locations on the Ribbon in the 2007 Office system, open one of the Microsoft Office Excel mapping workbooks, which you can browse, customize, print, and save on your computer. Instructions on the first tab of each workbook provide tips for customizing, finding, and printing the lists.

Books - Even though we didn't write any books for Office 2007, there are some solid books out there for intermediate and advanced users. Links to our recommended books and other Office-friendly products. It's all good!

Stephanie Krieger's Advanced Office Documents Inside and Out is used at Office BootCamp. It's written for intermediate and advanced users. The only downside? It doesn't include Outlook. 

If you spend a lot of your workday in Outlook, you'll want Outlook 2007 Inside and Out, written by our friend and Outlook/Exchange guru Jim Boyce and other Outlook experts.
