Book Description

Managing single or multiple projects is tough enough. Why compound your troubles by tackling the learning curve of a new software program at the same time? Instead, turn to Microsoft Project 98 For Dummies and let author Martin Doucette save you the headaches and hassles of mastering Microsoft Project 98 by yourself. Starting at the very beginning -- What's a project? -- Doucette takes you step-by-step through the powerful features and built-in planning, productivity, and tracking capabilities that make Microsoft Project 98 a must-have for project managers of all stripes and skill levels. In no time, you'll be building your own project schedules to meet deadlines and budgets, using Gantt charts to communicate your ideas visually, and adding pictures, sound files, or movies to your project pages. Sample project files from Microsoft Project 98 For Dummies are included on a special CD-ROM that also features project management software from the Project Management Institute and a trial version of the hot brainstorming software, Project KickStart.
