Access 97 for Windows for Dummies is the latest in a series of books which provides beginners with practical, jargon-free introductory guides to a range of products and applications in the computer world.

The book provides an introduction to Works 2000 for new users, with the assumption that the new Works user probably has little prior experience of computers. It starts with the basics of screen control and file management, then looks at each of the main components in turn. The focus is on what is being processed - text, numbers, etc - rather than the application being used, as the same techniques recur in different applications.
