Although it's somewhat dated at this point, see if you can locate a copy of the old Classroom in a Book for FrameMaker 6 or 7.

 <http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-FrameMaker-7-0-Classroom-Book/dp/0321131681>

Although we're up to FrameMaker 8, most of the central features of FrameMaker remained constant through versions 6 and 7.

For example, proper use of FrameMaker begins with named paragraph styles. In Word, named paragraph styles are too often thought of, if they're thought of at all, as nice to haves.

And the creation and formatting of TOCs, Indexes, and other generated files is something you probably won't figure out on your own.

The Classroom in a Book will give you a nice orientation to FrameMaker, enabling you to use -- and if you're like most of us, enjoy -- the product.

Cheers & hope this helps,
Riley
