COMMAND PERFORMANCE: APPLEWORKS

   "Charlie Rubin does things with (Appleworks) that even I didn't know were
possible." - Rupert Lissner, Developer of AppleWorks

   Charles Rubin, one of the foremost experts on Apple II technology and
author of the best-sellers APPLEWORKS and THE ENDLESS APPLE, has now written
the first desktop dictionary and cross-reference guide for the popular
integrated program AppleWorks (over 400,000 copies sold to date).
   Conveniently organized with alphabetized entries covering every AppleWorks
command and program feature, COMMAND PERFORMANCE: APPLEWORKS contains complete
explanations accompanied by helpful models.  General tutorial entries cover
the basic operating features of the program, such as the user interface,
printer-configuration options, and using AppleWorks under ProDOS.  Rubin
provides information on how to use a printer with AppleWorks, and on running
the program on a hard disk.  The book also contains specific entries on using
each of the AppleWorks modules: Database, spreadsheet, and word processing.
In addition, multiple cross references invite quick access to additional
information.  In all, COMMAND PERFORMANCE: APPLEWORKS is a complete resource
for novices as well as more experienced users of AppleWorks.
   Previously published titles in the Command Performance Series include
volumes on Lotus 1-2-3, dBase III, and Microsoft Multiplan on the Apple
Macintosh.
