It provides enough information to be a thorough reference for all but the most advanced users while not intimidating newer users.

For this new edition, the page count will increase roughly 150 pages to a total of 800 pages while maintaining the value price-point at $29.99.

And there will be coverage of new Office 2000 features including web based collaboration, the massive changes in setup including install on first use, and menus that automatically reconfigure based on how you use the program.
