Microsoft Word Advanced Course Outline

In the Microsoft Word Beginners Courses we explored using the software as a text editor, mastering the software as a desktop publishing tool to create menus, invitations, reports and even your own training materials and in this Microsoft Word Advanced Courses you’ll get to combine these skills with the database merging capabilities of the software. You’ll learn how to store data in Microsoft Word using data delimiters, connecting sales letters with data stored in Microsoft Excel files and use document information data like file names, storage locations, date, time and page numbers.

Using these capabilities and well worded text (focussed on each individual reader) you’ll be able to create compelling letters that you can print and send to thousands of recipients using the old fashioned “snail” mail delivery method – you’ll stand out from the online crowd.
