SUMMARY
=======
Microsoft Office 97 file formats are significantly different than Microsoft
Office 95 file formats. Consequently, Office 95 programs cannot read any file
saved by the corresponding Office 97 program.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The practice disks included with the books listed above contain files saved in
Office 97 file formats. Therefore, if you have Office 95 instead of Office 97,
you cannot read these files. Moreover, because of the many feature changes
between Office 95 and Office 97, the information in the Office 97 books may not
apply to Office 95 programs.
If you have Office 95, we recommend that you exchange your Office 97 book for one
of the following Microsoft Press titles:
- ISBN 1-55615-887-4 Microsoft Office 95 Integration Step by Step
- ISBN 1-55615-828-9 Microsoft Word 95 Step by Step
- ISBN 1-55615-825-4 Microsoft Excel 95 Step by Step
- ISBN 1-55615-829-4 Microsoft PowerPoint 95 Step by Step
- ISBN 1-55615-876-9 Microsoft Access 95 Step by Step
- ISBN 1-55615-897-1 Running Microsoft Office for Windows 95
- ISBN 1-55615-848-3 Running Microsoft Word for Windows 95
- ISBN 1-55615-831-9 Running Microsoft Excel for Windows 95
- ISBN 1-55615-852-1 Running Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows 95
