Microsoft Office
One of the major benefits of using Macintosh and Macintosh applications is you can easily apply
what you have learned about one program to any other program. In the past, when you moved
from one DOS program to another, there was no relationship between how the two operated.
In the Macintosh environment the screen display, menus, toolbars, and dialog boxes are alike.
For instance, the ways in which you start and quit programs, move between programs and files,
move around within a document, use menus, type, edit, cut or copy text, and use online Help are
the same.

Word
The application that is probably used most often is word processing. You can use Word to produce
letters, memos, envelopes, newsletters, reports, fax cover sheets, mailing labels, and many other
kinds of printed documents.

Excel
Excel is the Microsoft Office spreadsheet application. A spreadsheet application is based on the
accountants green sheets of bygone days. Each worksheet in the program contains 256 columns
and 65,536 rows. Columns are identified by letters across the top of the worksheet beginning
with A through Z and then continuing with AA through AZ, then BA through BZ and so on.
Rows are numbered from 1 down the left side of the worksheet.

The intersection of a column and row is called a cell. Cells are the units for storing data which
can then be edited, manipulated, charted, etc. At the bottom of each worksheet is a series of tabs
identifying each of the possible 255 worksheets in a workbook.
