The Microsoft Office 97 Resource Kit

If you're an administrator or an IS professional, this book was written for you. Here you'll find the hands-on, in-depth information you need to roll out, support, and troubleshoot Microsoft Office 97. For systems running Microsoft Windows 95 and Microsoft Windows NT (3.51 and 4.0), this is the professional's guide to Microsoft Office 97. Here's hands-on information about updating from earlier versions of Microsoft Office, about switching from other applications such as Lotus 1-2-3 and WordPerfect, and about coexistence among different versions of Microsoft Office. Of course, you get full information on network installation, plus the timesaving Network Installation Wizard on the enclosed CD-ROM. And like all the tools and utilities on the CD-ROM, this wizard is a tested, supported application designed to make your job easier.
