management is coming in to its own--even though most people manage projects
as part of their other duties. Special Edition Using Project 2000 provides
you with a comprehensive understanding of the features, functions and best
practices of project management, by thoroughly covering the industry's
leading project management tool. This book provides you with a firm grasp
of the installation, configuration and troubleshooting of Microsoft Project.
You will learn to schedule tasks effectively, track costs, review and distribute
information (especially Web distribution), project analysis, juggling multiple
projects effectively, and customization, including macro and VBA integration.
