Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition

Amazon.com Review
Microsoft’s Office 98 delivers a feature-rich and Mac-friendly version of the application suite that has become a fixture on personal computers around the world. Right from the installation process–which is as simple as dragging a single folder from the CD onto your desktop–it’s clear that in this outing Microsoft has taken the Mac’s reputation for user-friendliness seriously while not sacrificing any of the included applications’ functionality.

Word’s AutoCorrect fixes typos on the fly, and its spelling and grammar checkers combine with elegant editing and versioning tools to become a sophisticated document creation package. More subtle, but no less handy, is the font menu that shows you what the fonts really look like, the control-click that pops up a selection of synonyms, and the new table drawing tools. For number-crunching tasks, Excel will check your formulas for common errors, give multiple users the ability to access and edit shared workbooks simultaneously, and let you build equations using natural language. An improved, centralized chart wizard and custom cell formatting help make your numbers look their best. PowerPoint, Office’s popular presentation tool, features redesigned templates and new transitions as well as the flexibility to create multiple customized presentations from a single PowerPoint document.

Office 98 also includes support for drag and drop–so moving content from one program to another is easy–and QuickTime, wizards that help you quickly create standard office documents from templates, an Assistant that can give you step-by-step instructions for most tasks, and the key ability to undo multiple changes. The only thing Office 98 lacks is a Mac version of Microsoft Access, which leaves the suite without a database program. –Jack GardinerAmazon.com Product Description
Work the way you want with Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition, which brings together the world’s bestselling business productivity applications in an environment tightly integrated with the Macintosh operating system. Everything about it is designed to help you get better results with less effort, to communicate and collaborate easily, and to get the most out of your Mac.

Office 98 supports the platinum appearance defined by Apple and seen in Mac OS 8. In addition, extended support for Apple technologies makes it easier than ever to maximize all the resources of your Power Mac. Office 98 helps all users get great results faster and with less effort using innovative, timesaving features, such as the Office Assistant, which can walk you through virtually any task in every application. The Microsoft Word Table Drawing Tool helps you effortlessly create tables the way you want them to look. The intuitive Spell It and Grammar Check features save you time by checking your spelling and use of grammar as you type so you can correct common mistakes on the fly. Common menus, toolbars, and commands across all Office applications mean that once you’ve learned the features in one application it’s a snap to use other Office applications.

With Office 98 you don’t have to work alone. Powerful communication and collaboration features enable you to share work with others across platforms, across the office, and even over the Internet. Revolutionary new Web technology in Office 98 helps you quickly and easily write exciting multimedia pages directly from your Office 98 applications without having to learn HTML. Add hyperlinks to other Office documents for easy navigation from document to document–or to Web pages–on your hard disk, company intranet, or the Internet. Easily communicate, collaborate, and share Office documents with others–even Windows users–by using Microsoft Outlook Express. And take advantage of advanced workgroup features such as Document Versioning, Track Changes, and In-Place Comments in Word, and Shared Workbooks in Excel. Office 98 Macintosh Edition is the suite that helps you get the most out of your Macintosh and create results as brilliant as your ideas.

    Seamlessly Connect People with Processes
    Office 2003 is designed specifically to streamline communication and collaboration between internal and external team members using the desktop productivity programs that many people rely on every day. The “Document Workspaces” feature, for instance, enable teams to modify, access, and save documents in a central location. In addition, the “Shared Workspace” task pane displays tasks, related documents, links, and member lists that notify you when your team members are online.

    When you share documents with Office 2003, you have control over what gets changed. You can choose permission settings and allow co-authors to alter only the sections or formatting that you choose.

Simply set permission controls on entire documents or portions of a document to prevent modifications or reformatting. You can also improve the efficiency of your meetings with “Meeting Workspaces,” which offer a centralized location for sharing agendas, visual resources, and other documentation.

    With these improvements, you can manipulate, analyze, and format data from your most critical business systems and can customize documents and task panes so that they integrate with XML data sources and outside programs. The enhancements also reduce development time with XML. With Excel 2003, for instance, you can use the visual mapping tool to connect a user-specified XML schema to fields in your spreadsheet, and customize smart tags to bring relevant business information directly into your work. (Access 2003, Outlook 2003, and PowerPoint 2003 each support third-party and customized smart tags.)

    Included with Office 2003 Professional edition is Access 2003, Excel 2003, Outlook 2003 with Business Contact Manager, PowerPoint 2003, Publisher 2003, and Word 2003.
