Gentlemen:


Can you recommend a good tutorial book that I can use to learn how to easily 
operate Open Office.  I looked up the books listed on your website at Amazon 
and the reviews indicated they were useless and extremely unhelpful.


I am looking for some direction as to how to make the best use of this newly 
installed program on my computer--something for someone who is not computer 
savvy.  My last program was Word Perfect and it was just what its name implied.


Please help.

While I haven't read their books on Open/LibreOffice, I have been considerably 
helped by their shorter writings on the same. So I would have no hesitation in 
recommending anything on Open/LibreOffice by Solveig Haugland or Jean Hollis 
Weber.


These may be useful (even if they are for LO)

You can download free versions as well as purchase printed copies.
