In this book, you find out how to master the Ribbon user interface and discover the dozens of new features that Microsoft added to your favorite program, including its new drawing feature, which lets you add text, arrows, lines, and scribbles directly to an Office 2019 document, such as an Excel spreadsheet or a PowerPoint slide. More importantly, you find a host of shortcuts and tips to help you work faster and more efficiently than ever before. Whether you rely on Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, or Outlook, you’re sure to glean something new from this book to help you master Office 2019 on your own computer.
