Book Description
This book is written for anyone who needs to become proficient in word processing in a hurry, and who does not have the time or patience to work through large training manuals. The book is a light-hearted, practical guide to WordStar, one of the most powerful and popular word-processing systems available on today's microcomputers. The chapters cover all the essential elements of WordStar, starting with the basic commands and teaching through practical examples. MailMerge is introduced when such things as multiple copies of personalised letters are required and the reader is shown how to test his or her skill at using the English language by means of SpellStar. No previous knowledge of computers is assumed. After reading the book and working through the examples, the reader will be able to type a letter or document, make corrections, move, insert or delete blocks of text at will, store the information on magnetic disks, and print the final version as required (multiple copies if needed). Appendices giving an introduction to the CP/M operating system and describing all the WordStar and MailMerge commands are included.
