You are invited to the next meeting of the Washington Area Computer User Group (WAC), scheduled on Saturday, September 18th from 12:30 PM to 3:30 PM at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), 4210 Roberts Road, Fairfax, Virginia. The meeting is free and open to the public. Preregistration is not required to attend. At the September meeting, WAC member Walter Fraser will demonstrate the initial steps required to design and implement a sensible, flexible and robust name and address listing with the Microsoft Access 2007 database application. Access supports designing, building and managing meaningful, flexible, editable databases. This presentation will provide a good starting place for beginners building and using their own custom databases. During the Learn 30 tutorial session, learn how to take the tedium out of formatting your word processing documents by using the built-in styles feature. WAC member Geof Goodrum will use OpenOffice.org Writer to show how using styles can make your documents look more professional, and automate building table of contents, captioning figures and tables, and creating numbered section headings. These techniques are also applicable to Microsoft Word. WAC is a non-profit general interest computer user group that supports the Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux operating systems. For more information, visit our web site at http://www.wacug.org/, e-mail info (at) wacug.org, or call the WAC AnswerLine at 703-370-7649.
