Office 2007-2008 Training and Documentation

There are a number of ways to get help for Microsoft Office. 

a)  Carleton has partnered with ElementK and Microsoft to provide Carleton faculty and staff online training courses.  For information and getting started with either of these services, please click one of the links above.

b)  You can find lots of help in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. by simply clicking on the "?" icon within each of the programs.  Not only does Help search the help files on your computer but also searches Microsoft's vast help library online (provided you are connected to the Internet).  You can often find the answer to your question by using this built-in Help.

c)  The folks in Rapid Response are available to assist.

d)  Below are some links to informative pages about the various programs in the Microsoft Office suite.
