Subject: Microsoft Office Enterprise Insider: Office 2000 Is Here
As a subscriber to the Microsoft Office Enterprise Insider, you've been
finding out more and more about the newest version of our Office desktop
productivity suite, Office 2000. This special edition of the newsletter is
to inform you that Office 2000 becomes widely available in the U.S. on June
10, and to let you know that the Office Web site has been expanded and
completely redesigned in conjunction with the release of Office 2000. As
always, if you would like to unsubscribe to this Microsoft newsletter,
simply reply to this message with the word "Unsubscribe" in the subject
line.
Visit the "Office for Organizations" section of the new Office Web site for
comprehensive online information about Office 2000:

Office 2000 enables your users to collaborate in new ways using your
existing intranet infrastructure-all the while keeping you in control with a
host of new IT-oriented features. Here are just a few of the reasons why
Office 2000 is such a good fit for organizations:
FINALLY, A MORE PRACTICAL INTRANET
Because HTML is now one of the Office file formats, users can instantly
share information with anyone, anywhere over your intranet, just by clicking
"Save as Web Page" for any Office file. Moreover, with Office 2000 teams
work together more efficiently because now all of the team's best ideas are
consolidated in one place via in-line discussions on an intranet page (no
more weeding through comments scattered in e-mails and in hard copies, or
dealing with multiple versions of outdated documents).
KEY INFORMATION, WITHOUT THE INFORMATION OVERLOAD
Microsoft Outlook 2000 helps users harness the increasing flow of
information that comes across their desktops. The latest version of our
messaging and collaboration client gives users a single, consolidated
"dashboard" to all of their key information-e-mail, calendar, contacts,
tasks, folders, and Web sites-so they stay up-to-date, more organized, and
more focused on the information that really counts.
DATA ACCESS AND ANALYSIS: THE MORE USERS KNOW . . .
Does your IT group ever find itself bogged-down by producing custom reports
for teams that could be doing it themselves? Office 2000 can help you
reduce that burden by making company data easier for users to access and
analyze. Office Web Components, like data charts and pivot tables, can now
easily be published to an intranet site, so that users can manipulate and
modify data from within their browser. And because Web Components are
linked directly to your database, users always work with current
information. Particularly effective is the combination of Microsoft Access
2000, Microsoft Excel 2000, and Microsoft SQL Server 7.0.*
NEW DEPLOYMENT AND INSTALLATION FEATURES
Give your users just the functionality they need, when they need it, and
where they need it ("just-in-time, just enough"). IT can easily customize
Office 2000 down to the feature level, without the need for specialized
deployment software. With the Office Profile Wizard, the Custom
Installation Wizard, and the Windows Installer, Office 2000 yields practical
benefits for IT in terms of lower support costs, more efficient use of user
hardware, and the ability to manage all of this customization centrally.
ONLINE RESOURCES TO HELP YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
No matter where you are in your evaluation of Office 2000, the expanded and
redesigned Office Web site has valuable information and resources that will
help you along the way.
Go to the section of the Office home page called "Office for Organizations,"
and find links there to "Evaluation Fundamentals," "In-Depth Product
Information," "Deployment Resources," "Support Resources," and more.
Organizations beginning the evaluation process, for example, will benefit
from the overview of key technologies in Office 2000 in an introductory
white paper accessible from our Evaluation Fundamentals page. But if you're
farther along the evaluation path, visit the Deployment Resources page,
containing links to free deployment tools and a database of partners trained
and certified to help you deploy Office 2000. And that just scratches the
surface of all the resources and materials we've developed for IT
professionals and other enterprise users, so be sure to explore the new
Office Web site today, at:

Thanks for your attention, and, most of all, thank you for your continued
interest in Microsoft Office. Look for your regular edition of the Office
Enterprise Insider newsletter again next month.
