Reliable And Easy To Use - Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business MS Office 2003 - Tried and Trusted Although a later edition of Microsoft Office appeared some years ago, many loyal fans still continue to use the Microsoft Office 2003 edition. Its not that there is anything wrong with the 2007 version of Microsoft Office - it is a great office productivity suite. But Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business offers the user just about all the features needed in normal business operations, so many people did not feel the need to upgrade when the new version came out. Also for smaller businesses, those not in a position to invest more or those that do not need the latest computer hardware, using Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business makes sense because it does not demand much in the way of hardware. Remember that the suite was developed to run on computers made in 2003 and earlier. That means that you can run Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business on computers with a 133MHz processor, 128 MB Ram and a 360 MB HDD. For small companies who do not need more modern equipment, using Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business makes sound economic sense. And even for those who can afford more modern hardware and who have it available for use, if MS Office 2003 Small Business with its proven reliability, speed and ease of use is enough to meet their requirements, spending more on a larger more resource-hungry new version does not really make much sense. What is the MS Office 2003 suite ? The Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business edition comprises of five software programs that cover just about all normal office applications: Microsoft WORD 2003 Word 2003 is the most widely used semi DTP program in the world It is easy enough for normal word processing to be done quickly and simply At the same time it has many advanced DTP functions that are often required It can be used for creating and editing web pages Because it is so widespread in its usage, it is very rare to find a computer that is unable to access a Word 2003 document Microsoft OUTLOOK 2003 WITH BUSINESS CONTACT MANAGER A single point solution to all emailing operations The Business Contact Manager makes keeping track of all your business contacts and updating the information extremely simple The calendar function makes scheduling and planning easy Microsoft EXCEL 2003 The most popular and widely used of all spreadsheet programs It makes creating records, financial statements and other documents very easy Using and manipulating figures for analysis and projections is very easy with a simple intuitive user interface The ready-made formulae make all kinds of calculation extremely easy and if the user so desires, more specific formulae for specialized application and results can be created. Microsoft POWERPOINT 2003 This is the most popular presentation software in existence Extremely easy to use, even a layman can create professional quality presentation that includes music, photos and even video animation if so desired The ever-increasing number of ready-made templates and slide designs provide an easy resource for creating new and modern-looking presentations. Microsoft PUBLISHER 2003 This program offers an easy way to create web pages, e-newsletters and other online documents The simple and intuitive user interface means that even a beginner will so be able to produce professional-looking online documentation. But the real advantage of Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business is that the suite is more than the sum of the parts of the individual programs. With XML being the industry standard for information exchange, Microsoft Word 2003 , Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Excel 2003 all offer the exchange of XML data, thus enabling the creation of smooth integrated information exchange between business entities. Besides this Microsoft Office 2003 Small Business also offers facilities for centralized management of customer and other business related information. Easy-to-use wizards make creating emai
