Alright, well MS Office is MS Office. And basically I can use it and make documents of sords... MS Word - I use that to type up my school papers. Can also do funny designs and put pictures to take up space when I'm out of ideas. MS Exel - Tables and Graphs... I'm good at it =D Also used for school work, especially when graphs are needed. MS Access - WOO! Finally something useful! Database made easy, with the power of Access! I use it to create databases for my programs and to generate SQL statments to use in same programs. Take a look at AddressBook made in VB for basic database example. MS PowerPoint - Useful for making fast slideshows when I don't have time left. Or for school presentations where they don't support other formats. I had quite a few presentations done, but all files are lost (though I got good marks in those presentations, I can tell you that). MS FrontPage - Useful for making webpages in short time, but personally I don't like it becuase I can't align things properly, especially graphics. In other words, a website with design like this one will not be possible. MS Outlook - Also a part of office, Outlook can send and recieve e-mails. Since I use it at school everyday, I'm coumfortable with using it.
