Product Information

"Microsoft Office Project for Mere Mortals(R) "strips away the mysteries of Microsoft Office Project, giving you practical skills, methodologies, and best practices for building schedules and budgets that work. Using the clear, concise, and friendly style that's a hallmark of the For Mere Mortals"(R) "series, Jansen provides step-by-step instructions for every feature you really need to master, whether you're using Project 2007, 2003, or 2002.
