Jane,
I am confused by the question, what types of business oriented things
would you do in the Office suite on PC's that would in any way differ
from that on Macs? The only exception I can think of would possibly be
ODBC connections to Access (not included with or available for Macs),
which can easily be paralleled, if not improved upon with ODBC to
FileMaker. If you have Macs teach the same stuff as you would PCs. Oh,
it just occurred to me that some may use Word for HTML coding using
Front Page extensions but you need a server that supports that as well.
Mac Word will save as HTML as well but IMHO this is not a good way to
learn HTML anyway. Anybody else?
