Office 2003 Crossword Puzzles



To The Student: Almost everyone enjoys a good puzzle. With this in mind, we have created a series of unique crossword and “word find” puzzles to accompany our series, Exploring Microsoft® Office 2003. Every chapter has two puzzles, one of each type. We suggest that you start with the “word find” and use the list of key words and concepts at the end of the chapter to determine what each clue represents, and then locate the corresponding word or phrase in the puzzle. You can then try the accompanying crossword which repeats clues from the “word find” to reinforce the material, and which adds additional clues to challenge you further. And if you are up to a real challenge, try the composite (Sunday) crossword puzzles that combine the clues from multiple chapters in a single puzzle. We look forward to your comments.
