How about the "Dummies Guides" or "Missing Manual" series? They
aren't bad starting points and there are also innumerable
elementary teach-yourself books, some graphical like those sold
by Barnes and Noble.

Missing Manual? I've never heard of those. As for Dummies books - I have
several but find them a bit too "cute" at times.

They can be cutesy but are often a good start. It's a bit like
speed reading a text before studying properly.
I just reached out and picked up "Windows XP, the Missing Manual
(The book that should have been in the box)", published by Pogue
Press, O'Reilly. There are a number of others, not just for
Microsoft products; Adobe Elements is one I think.

I'll have to check out Borders for them. I'm always in the market for books
that may help me with various programs.
