Yes, I've got that book - and have used it quite a bit. Unfortunately, there are things I need to do that aren't covered within those pages, like formatting within a table cell or underlining a single word in a sentence and trying to figure that out given the crap help that's out on MSDN has me just about ready to start chewing through the walls. And since this is an old Air Force Base, I'm afraid of what I might find in said walls.
