The OfficeWorks SIG
This group is for users of word processing, spreadsheet, and
presentation software. We focus primarily on Microsoft Office and
AppleWorks software, as well as answering questions about iWorks.
The main aim of this SIG is help new and experienced users become
more aware of software capabilities they may not have had time or
inclination to learn before now.
The meetings of the OfficeWorks SIG are held on Saturdays from
12:15-1:45p.m. following the PMUG general
meetings.You
must be a member in good standing of PMUG to attend the OfficeWorks
SIG meetings. If you are not, you may join or
rejoin
at the meeting. If you have a Macintosh laptop, bring it to follow
along with our examples.
We have a general plan for each meeting with a question &
answer time to begin, followed by a specific topic presentation,
ending with a question time related to the lesson. We will have
handouts for some lessons, but not necessarily for all of them. Our

follows:
