COMMAND PERFORMANCE: MULTIPLAN ON THE APPLE MACINTOSH The Indispensable Desktop Dictionary and Cross-Reference Guide

Today’s software is more powerful than ever, and added power often means that a program has command structures that are difficult to learn, use, and remember. This December, Microsoft Press will introduce the COMMAND PERFORMANCE series, a unique line of comprehensive desktop dictionaries and cross-reference books designed to be the only reference guides users of such popular software as dBASE III, LOTUS 1-2-3, and Microsoft Multiplan on the Apple Macintosh will ever need. Microsoft Press is supporting the COMMAND PERFORMANCE series with a major advertising and promotional campaign. The second volume in the COMMAND PERFORMANCE series is devoted to Microsoft Multiplan for the Apple Macintosh – the spreadsheet used by more Macintosh owners than any other. In COMMAND PERFORMANCE: MULTIPLAN ON THE APPLE MACINTOSH, author Eddie Adamis provides insightful and immediately useful information on all of Multiplan’s capabilities. Arranged alphabetically, the book’s more than 150 entries fall into six categories: commands, functions, operators, error values, tutorials and lists. Each entry for the commands, functions, operators and error values offer complete explanations accompanied by practical models, while the tutorial entries present a quick course on a general Multiplan feature, using examples and screen displays to illustrate key points. Multiple cross-references invite quick access to additional information on all entries. Both novice users and Multiplan experts will find COMMAND PERFORMANCE: MULTIPLAN ON THE APPLE MACINTOSH an indispensable desktop companion. After enjoying a successful career as a music composer and arranger, Eddie Adamis now devotes his time to writing about computers. Since 1979, he has contributed articles to Temps Reel and Microsystems magazines, and has written over 20 computer books. He currently lives in Paris, France. The first book in the series, COMMAND PERFORMANCE: dBASE III, was recently published. The next volume in the series, devoted to LOTUS 1-2-3, will be released in January 1986, and additional titles will be published throughout the year. Microsoft Corporation, based in Bellevue, Washington, develops and sells a wide range of operating systems, languages, applications programs, and hardware products, as well as books, for the microcomputer marketplace.
