Microsoft Office

Add sound effects to your
presentation in Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007. Set them to start
and stop when you want them to, and see how to make a sound play for
a specified number of slides. Also learn how to play a CD with your
show.
You may want to introduce
a slide or make a point by including a sound effect. This course
tells you how to play sounds in a presentation — either by inserting
a sound file or by playing music from a CD.
For an inserted sound,
choose a way to make it start and specify how long it should play,
even over a number of slides. Hide the sound icon if you want, and
trigger the sound by clicking something else, such as a shape or
picture.
After completing this
course you will be able to:
•Insert sound files and select how
each one should start and stop.
•Set up
a slide element so that it triggers the sound.
•Guarantee that your sound will play when you present.
•Play a
CD for a slide show and select the tracks you want.

Is VoIP Right for
Your Business?
More and more businesses tired of racking up high
telecommunications bills are turning to the Internet for their
phone service.
More and more
businesses tired of racking up high telecommunications bills
are turning to the Internet for their phone service. Voice
over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services enable businesses to
conduct calls across the same network to access the Internet
and get email – and at a fraction of the cost of traditional
voice networks. However, VoIP developers have been focused on
quality and reliability versus security. Therefore, if you
choose to adopt VoIP, it is up to you to take the proper steps
to secure it.
Background and
benefits The technology behind VoIP has been around
for a few years; early incarnations of VoIP were plagued by
spotty service, muddled and dropped calls. Only in the last
few years has VoIP service improved enough to make it
sufficiently reliable and stable for business use. In fact,
businesses are finding that a well-planned and implemented
VoIP system can provide call quality and reliability that
rivals mobile phone or landline calls.

Stay Fit While You
Sit Tips for Staying Healthy
at Your Desk Job
Do
you sit at your desk for long periods of the day? Have you
ever experienced back, neck or shoulder pain after a long day
at the office? Perhaps you put on a few pounds after taking a
desk job. Research has shown that people who work desk jobs
are likely to lose muscle tone, experience back pain, gain
weight and suffer from increased stress. That's because
inactivity, poor posture and bad eating habits tend to plague
those who sit at a desk throughout the day.
One study by the American
Council on Exercise (ACE) showed that those whose jobs
require them to sit at least six hours a day are twice as
likely to be overweight as those who sit for less than 45
minutes a day at work. So what can you do to stay fit but keep
your desk job? Check out these tips. |

Outlook
Anywhere
Remote access of
Exchange-based email is a requirement of most mobile workers. In the
past, Outlook Web Access provided some, but not all, of the
functionality of Outlook. Remote users who wanted to use their
native Outlook software were forced to use a VPN connection to
access the corporate network. VPN's, however, are more complex to
configure and enable access to more network services than are
required for simple e-mail access.
Outlook 2003 and 2007 now
offers a simpler alternative to VPN connections — RPC over HTTP
(which Microsoft has mercifully renamed "Outlook Anywhere"). With
this feature, users can have security-enhanced access to their
Exchange Server accounts from the Internet when they are working
outside your organization's firewall. Users do not need any special
connections or hardware, such as smart cards and security tokens,
and they can still get to their Exchange accounts even if the
Exchange server and client computer are behind firewalls on
different networks. The user runs the same Outlook used inside the
network and has all of Outlook's functionality enabled including
shared calendars, contact lists and public folder access.
Outlook Anywhere runs on
Windows XP and Vista and requires Microsoft Exchange Server 2003,
2007 or Microsoft Small Business Server 2003. Take advantage of
Outlook's power and flexibility outside your office with Outlook
Anywhere. Contact your account manager at Panurgy or the
Helpdesk for more information. |
