Training yourself, your company, or your customers just got easier with
MICROSOFT MS-DOS 6 STEP BY STEP--the new book-and-disk training courseware
from Microsoft Press.

This timesaving, cost-effective training package is the ideal self-paced
learning tool. Newcomers to MS-DOS and personal computers will be amazed
at how quickly they'll learn the basics of the MSDOS operating system.
There's less downtime and lost productivity because users can learn right
at their own desks. It's the perfect solution for today's on-the-go
business-people who want to know how to work with their computers more
effectively.

Each of the 11 lessons is generously illustrated with screen shots and
real-world examples that are fully integrated with the practice files on
disk. Readers can compare their results and track their progress for each
lesson. Readers will learn to use MS-DOS to:

* Organize files into directories for quick access
* Copy multiple files onto a floppy disk--in a single step
* Use the MS-DOS Editor to create timesaving batch files
* Protect data and recover files accidentally lost
* Check a computer system for damaging viruses
* Double the size of a hard disk with DoubleSpace

MICROSOFT MS-DOS 6 STEP BY STEP is also easily adaptable for use in an
instructor-led classroom setting. Lessons can be customized to fit the
needs of a special software training curriculum in a small-business or
corporate training facility. Appendixes cover some of the more advanced
system-optimization features of MS-DOS version 6, including memory
management and optimization of disk efficiency. A glossary makes looking
up terms easy, and the comprehensive index helps students and instructors
quickly find information on any topic in the book.

Microsoft MS-DOS version 5.0 or later is required. The book includes one
720-KB 3.5-inch disk and ordering information for a 1.2-MB 5.25-inch
disk.
