Microsoft Office and Microsoft Word in particular is one of the most popular programs that our firm, Computer Help provides instruction, one on one tutoring and consultation. I personally use MS Word for almost every task: Envelopes, Mailing Labels, Database, WordArt, Interactive Forms, Faxes, Letters, Lists, Newsletters, Tables, Email Editor and much more. The exception, Graphics and Web Pages. For graphics I use
Ulead's PhotoImpact and Microsoft's FrontPage for web site design.

Formerly the #1 rated Microsoft Word Expert at Askme.com since volunteering there in December 2000. In that time, responding to thousands of questions most of which were specific to Microsoft Word.
What I like about this subject is the day by day excitement of learning something new or utilizing a program feature that I didn't realize was available. I learn from your questions too. We all gain by sharing our MS Word knowledge.
To enjoy the continuing learning experience of Microsoft Word and its many features and should I live long enough, to master Formulas in Word Tables and maybe if I get some courage; Macro's.
For many years, WordPefect was the word processor of choice for millions of users but now that has changed. Microsoft Office and Word pretty much dominates the entire market. It is my opinion that Microsoft Word is the only business choice when it comes to word processing. If you have the patience, MS Word can be used to accomplish almost every task you can dream up.
Microsoft controversial or provocative? No, they just make the best software in the world! Drives the users nuts but it is still the best!
