Standard Edition
Microsoft Office 2003
combines ease of use with top of the line productivity. Using
Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, Access and other applications you can
operate your organization effectively.
Whether you're a student, small
business owner, or a volume-license business customer, Microsoft has an
Office 2003 Edition that's right for you. Office Standard Edition 2003
includes the following programs: Excel 2003, Outlook 2003, PowerPoint
2003, and Word 2003.
Professional Edition
Office 2003 Editions can help
organizations and their employees transform information into impact. New
and familiar products, features, and functionality improve how people
and organizations connect to coworkers, information, and business
processes.
Advances in intranet collaboration through integration with the
collaboration and information-sharing portal, Microsoft Office
SharePoint Portal Server 2003, enable employees to access and share
information both internally and externally. Support for information
rights management (IRM) and industry-standard Extensible Markup Language
(XML) provide a platform on which to quickly build cost-effective
solutions that can have an immediate impact.
Streamline communication and collaboration between internal and external
team members using the desktop productivity programs that many people
rely on every day. Enable teams to modify, access, and save documents in
a central location using Document Workspaces. In addition, the Shared
Workspace task pane displays tasks, related documents, links, and member
lists that notify you when your team members are online. Document
Workspaces and the Shared Workspace task pane require Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 running Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services.
Share documents with team members and have control over what gets
changed. Choose permission settings and allow coauthors to alter only
the sections or formatting that you choose. Improve the efficiency of
your meetings with Meeting Workspaces, which offer a centralized
location for sharing agendas, visual resources, and other documentation.
Meeting Workspaces require Windows Server 2003 running Windows
SharePoint Services. Contact team members quickly with instant messaging
(IM), which can be displayed in most programs in Office 2003 Editions
and lets you know when your team members are online. Online presence
information requires Windows Server 2003 running Windows SharePoint
Services.
Help protect and control who can access vital business information using
IRM, enabled by Microsoft Windows Rights Management Services (RMS) on
Windows Server 2003. IRM prevents or limits documents from being used in
unintended ways, giving organizations and information workers greater
control of their sensitive information. Help secure company assets by
using IRM capabilities to prevent people who receive documents or e-mail
messages from forwarding, copying, or printing documents and
attachments. Reduce document sharing or unintended use by setting an
expiration date on a document, after which it cannot be viewed or
modified. Help protect your documents from being unintentionally changed
by using Word Formatting and Editing Restrictions. Set permission
controls on entire documents or portions of a document to prevent
modifications or reformatting.
Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003 enables you to create IRM-protected
content and grant other users the rights to access and modify your files
or e-mail messages. Author, access, and analyze information that resides
in disparate systems. Office 2003 Editions support the industry-standard
XML technology that facilitates enterprise transactions and
business-to-business data exchange. Manipulate and analyze XML business
data. Office 2003 programs can manipulate, analyze, and format data from
your most critical business systems. You can customize documents and
task panes so that they integrate with XML data sources and outside
programs. Empower users and reduce development time with XML. With
Microsoft Office Excel 2003, you can use the visual mapping tool to
connect a user-specified XML schema to fields in your spreadsheet.
Customize smart tags to bring relevant business information directly
into your work. Microsoft Office Access 2003, Outlook 2003, and
Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 support third-party and customized
smart tags.
In all Office 2003 Editions, Excel 2003 spreadsheets and Word 2003
documents can be saved in a native XML file format which can be
manipulated and searched using any program that can process industry
standard XML. With Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003, companies
can also use customized XML formats - or schemas - to enable easier and
more advanced information creation, capture, exchange, and reuse.
Small Business Edition

Here are the top 10 reasons to upgrade to Office Small Business Edition
2003.
Track your business contact information in one familiar place. Use
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 with Business Contact Manager, an add-on
to Outlook 2003, to have one place to manage all your business contact
information and track key information about sales opportunities,
accounts, and individual business contacts. This single-user contact
management solution can help you take full advantage of Outlook 2003,
the contact and e-mail program you already use.
Manage sales leads and opportunities. Stay on top of opportunities and
maximize sales potential by more effectively tracking leads using
Business Contact Manager. Create a contact page containing essential
information for every business opportunity; set reminders, rules or
alerts to follow up; and store other data as the relationship evolves.

Office Publisher 2003, the business publishing and marketing solution,
makes it easy to create compelling sales and marketing publications for
print, Web, and e-mail. Promote your business with professional-quality
newsletters, brochures, Web sites, marketing e-mail messages, catalogs,
and other materials that you can create in-house.
Build publications from a database. Use the Catalog Merge Wizard in
Publisher 2003 to create a new publication or update text and images in
a merged publication with just a few clicks. The wizard merges images
and text from a data source - such as Microsoft Excel or Microsoft
Access - to build a publication. It's a great tool for creating
catalogs, price lists, address books, directories, datasheets, and other
publications that get updated frequently.
Efficiently connect with your customers online. Use Publisher 2003 to
easily and cost effectively create and send attractive e-mail
publications or newsletters that look great whether your recipient is
using Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, or other popular e-mail
clients. Give your business a Web presence with the new Easy Web Site

presentations with streaming audio and video using Microsoft Office
PowerPoint 2003, included in Office Small Business Edition 2003. Expand

playback controls, a wide range of static and streaming audio and video
formats, and full-screen video presentations during slide shows. Publish
your presentation to the Web or copy it onto a CD using the Package for
CD feature.
Handle e-mail messages more efficiently. Handle messages more
efficiently and respond to changing business conditions more quickly
with enhanced Outlook 2003 e-mail capabilities. Improvements such as the
larger reading area, Mail Desktop Alert, Quick Flags, and Search Folders
can help you spend less time reading, organizing, searching for, and
responding to e-mail messages.
Help increase security and privacy while reducing junk e-mail messages
and viruses. Increased security measures in Outlook 2003 - such as
blocking incoming messages that may contain viruses, blocking Hypertext
Markup Language (HTML) images to prevent e-mail address validation, and
improved rules to reduce junk e-mail messages - can help reduce the time
you spend managing e-mail messages.
Access templates, clip art, training courses, and how-to articles.
Microsoft Office Online provides time-saving and helpful tools and
resources, including how-to articles, training, templates, clip art, and
product updates. Employees and managers can get the help they need to
increase productivity and get maximum impact from Office Small Business
Edition 2003 and other Microsoft Office System products.

teaming, partnering, and project visibility with shared workspaces -
created from programs in Microsoft Office 2003 Editions and based on
Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services. These collaboration Web sites
provide centralized workspaces where virtual teams can work together in
real time to share, modify, and review files.
