Spring 2004 StarOffice Class
This non-credit seminar is held in the IMAGE Lab (Rolfs 410).
To sign up for this seminar, email me.
This is a one day seminar on using StarOffice. After the first day, if people have additional questions or needs, we can schedule other days. StarOffice is generally easy to use, so this will just be a pointers and tips seminar.
After this seminar, you should feel more comfortable with StarOffice and I'll use this seminar to develop more help pages on StarOffice.
