Announcing the PRIME for Office Utilities CD: If You Use Office, You Need This!by Lee HudspethJune 28, 2001 If you use Microsoft Office 97, Office 2000, or the latest
incarnation, Office XP (referred to as 2002 in some circles), we
have the tools and the help you need to tame Office like a pro.
If you know how much of a productivity punch our prior Office
utilities pack, you may want to get right to the business of
ordering our latest CD: For those of you unfamiliar with our utilities, T.J. and I have been on the "Office productivity" soapbox for almost a decade. The story goes like this... First, we love Office. Second, we hate Office. Conundrum, you say? Bear with me. We first became enamored with Microsoft's individual applications (Excel and Word) in the halcyon days before Office was Office. (For the historically curious among you, that's how T.J. and I met, at an Excel User's Group here in Los Angeles that was geared for consultants. A story for another day.) We loved Microsoft's business applications because we were able to quickly get things done for clients involving documentation, number crunching, presentations, etc. that no other packages could equal. The more we learned, the more immersed we became. We began to think like these applications, to really REALLY understand them. Then we wrote our own Excel and Word courseware for our Fortune 1000 training gigs, wrote our own Excel and Word custom add-ins, wrote our own Excel and Word books, then came Office to pull everything all together and we keep writing Office books and tools. Our knowledge has continued expanding to keep up the pace. Bottom line: we appreciate the tremendous power of Office, we know how to use that power, and that's great for us, but what about you? We understand that you--our readers, customers, and colleagues-- simply want to get your work done and be home a tad early today. Now about that hatred part... Office and its various applications can be overwhelmingly massive, complex, and difficult to use. (We're being diplomatic here.) You talk to Mr. Clippy, often profanely, you search the knowledge bases in an abject panic, you pull down one menu after another hoping to find that one elusive check box, you pull your hair, you pound your fists, and sometimes you just can't get Office to see things your way. Aaaargh! We've been down all those dark alleys. We can help you get home early today, and have some fun with Office to boot. We took all our knowledge and experience and created a set of Office utilities that make Office sit up and beg to do your bidding. Those utilities cover Office 97, 2000, and XP, and we've bundled them together on a single CD entitled the "PRIME for Office Utilities CD." The utilities on this CD are all co-developed by T.J., me, and Mike Craven (our firm's senior developer and quintessential Office expert). It is no exaggeration to say that we've put our heart, soul, and mind into these utilities. Furthermore, we've written a new ebook "How to Save Time with Office" that we are including with this CD in which we walk you step by step through each utility and show you how to use each one to unlock the true potential of Office. This ebook makes it easy to put hours back into your day. We'll be sharing excerpts from this ebook in upcoming issues. So, what utilities are on this CD? Our DocLauncher utility comes with over 300 features that you can use on all your Office documents and all other file types, and it works across all Office applications. In addition to DocLauncher, the CD includes over 80 custom Word and Excel utilities. Over three dozen Quick Clicks that give you one-click access to some of Office's handiest, but hardest to find, treasures. These utilities have won awards and they've won customer praise. Here's just one example. "I've never seen so many useful macros and toolbars in one package. Authors and writers will find these tools especially powerful for customizing and personalizing Microsoft Word." -- Richard Dooling, novelist The "PRIME for Office Utilities CD" includes these eight powerful utilities that you can install depending on which version of Office you are running: * PRIME DocLauncher for Office XP/2002 The CD includes this free bonus material: * a custom menu system that fires up when you insert the CD; it

Many of you use Office 2000 today, but may be considering an upgrade to XP. If and when you decide to upgrade, you'll already have PRIME's Office XP utilities at your fingertips, fully registered, ready to install with a single click.
