Immediate Productivity Booster!
The WordTips Ten-Year Library includes every edition of every WordTips e-book ever published. That's a total of nine CDs of e-books, each focused on a single area where you can become more productive in Word. The solutions provided in these e-books allow you to master the areas where you can gain the largest productivity boosts when using Word.
- Word 2002 Beginner's Guidebook. The one book you need to best learn to use Microsoft Word! Why? Unlike other books that try to explain how to use every feature, Word 2002 Beginner's Guidebook focuses on the most common tasks and explains how to use them in an easy-to-understand format. You can see, right away, how to accomplish your tasks through the use of step-by-step instructions and helpful figures. While focusing on Word 2002, the techniques and information provided in this e-book are still applicable to Word 2003 and Word 2007 users. ($19.99 value)
- WordTips: Find and Replace, 1st Edition. The most powerful and often-used tool in Word’s editing arsenal is the Find and Replace tool. It is capable of doing so much more than finding simple pieces of text and replacing them with other pieces of text. Using the techniques described in this e-book, you can search for different combinations of text and formatting, replace what you find with a flexible array of items, and even search and replace special characters and graphics. ($22.99 value)
- WordTips: Find and Replace, 2nd Edition. A greatly expanded version of the first edition, offering over 120 pages of tips and techniques for getting the most out of Word's powerful Find and Replace tool.

- WordTips: The Macros, 1st Edition. Learning to use and create macros in Word can be scary. Those who make the effort to learn how to create their own macros, however, find that they become much more confident and productive. At over 250 pages, this first edition is an invaluable source for learning how to finally conquer VBA macros in Word. This e-book was originally only available as a download, never as a CD. It has been transferred to CD for this special library. ($32.99 value)
- WordTips: The Macros, 2nd Edition. With nearly 80 pages of brand new information, this edition provides even more ways that you can learn how to use macros to automate and streamline your use of Word.

Individual macros will make your use of Word more powerful and decrease the amount of time you need to process your documents. ($32.99 value) More information...

The WordTips e-books deliver powerful,
focused information that will
make you more productive right away.
Notice that the WordTips Ten-Year Library includes several editions of some of the e-book titles. While not precisely necessary for informational reasons (after all, the information from earlier editions is included in later editions), your library includes all of the editions so that you have a complete set of everything published by WordTips. When We say that this is a complete library, we mean it!
Real-world feedback: I am constantly amazed at what I learn from WordTips and after finding one more thing I *DIDN'T* know this morning, just wanted to drop you a line to say so. Though I'm a long-time user of Word, I still find startling, powerful, and interesting ways to use it thanks to you and the legions of your readers and contributors. Thanks for WordTips and the books you have written. I have learned a lot! (Roger, Texas)

Premium Library Case!

The WordTips Ten-Year Library is enclosed
in a virtually indestructable case.
The 22 CDs in the WordTips Ten-Year Library are packaged in a premium-quality hard storage case. This is not any run-of-the-mill case, mind you—it is made of steel and high-impact PVC so your library is protected from almost anything you can throw at it. If you sit on it or drop it out the window, the CDs inside the case will still be protected.
While the outside of the library's case may be tough, the inside is soft and gentle. Each CD is cradled in a protective sleeve that prevents scratches and cuts down on dust. Your CDs never had it so good!
In addition, the carrying case is lockable. Your carrying case comes with two keys you can use to secure the library so that unwelcome users cannot remove CDs from the collection without your knowledge. It also comes with an adjustable, detachable shoulder strap to make transporting your library easier than ever. (Need to access the library from a different location in your office? No problem—just take it with you in the deluxe library case.)
Real-world feedback: WordTips is fantastic. What a service! I was frustrated trying to use Word Help, now everything is easy. Thanks! (David)
Handy Flash Drive!

The WordTips Ten-Year Library is available
on a custom 1GB flash drive.
Let's face it—some people just don't care for CDs. While they are great for company libraries where users could check out a couple of CDs at a time, they may not be the best option if the library will be used by a single person. If you fall into the latter category, you may prefer to have your copy of the WordTips Ten-Year Library all in a single place.
That's why we're also making the library available on a single flash drive. Yes, you can get the same content as on the 22 CDs on a single 1 GB flash drive. The custom drive plugs into any USB port on your computer and its contents are instantly available for your use. There are 22 folders on the flash drive, each one representative of the CDs in the library.
The flash drive is extremely convenient and easy to carry from place to place. We made sure that the capacity of the flash drive was large enough that you can even put additional information on it, if desired. (It's a great place to put future issues of WordTips or WordTips Premium, for instance.)
An Essential Library Addition!
If you are an avid or professional Word user, you know that it can be difficult (if not impossible) to find all the information you need about Word in one place. With this WordTips Ten-Year Library, that's no longer a problem. With the amazing depth of information available in this collection, you'll find all you need to know about any version of Word used over the past decade.
If you man a help desk or are the designated guru for your office, you'll find the information in the WordTips Ten-Year Library absolutely essential. You can help users learn more about their specific version of Word. You'll be immediately more helpful to others and able to lighten your support load.
Real-world feedback: I find both [WordTips and ExcelTips] to be very valuable sources of information. I am one of the "go to" people for both products at my present and previous companies, and I still find something new or helpful in almost every issue of both. Please keep up the good work! (Alan)
