Final Review
The lessons are well thought out, easy to follow and cover a variety
of practical techniques. I also appreciated the book binding which
allows the book to remain open and flat while typing and learning!
The trial version lasts 30 days, starting from date of activation
(which is required to get full functionality of the trial version
of the product). While 30 days may seem like a fairly generous timeframe,
time can easily slip away and before you know it, there are just a
few days left before the trial version ends.
To fully understand the product you must use the trial version, but
read through the lessons first, before installing and using the trial.
You will have more time to do the lessons you want and re-do those
of most interest.

This book outlines the objectives to be covered with each lesson.
The methodology used is very appealing to beginners. An experienced
visio user can use this for a quick update into the 2002 edition.
