Microsoft Office works hand in hand with the Windows 95 operating system, delivering improved performance, long filenames, and a long list of usability enhancements. Together, Microsoft Office and Windows 95 make computing fundamentally easier.

• Long filenames: Name your document "November Status Report," "Letter to Susan," or anything else up to 250 characters.
• Fewer interruptions: Every Microsoft Office product is full 32-bit—giving you true preemptive multitasking and better system resource management—so there's nothing to slow you down.
• Easy access: Tight integration with the Windows 95 interface allows you to create, open, and view files and documents from the Windows 95 desktop.
• Less waiting: Multithreading and other 32-bit improvements speed up printing, PowerPoint slide sorting, and queries in Microsoft Access. Recalculation and PivotTable® dynamic views in Microsoft Excel, and repagination in Word, are all up to 50 percent faster.

Microsoft Office has IntelliSense technology, which senses your intent and delivers the desired result. It makes complex tasks easy and routine tasks automatic.

• Enhanced AutoCorrect: Your computer fixes common typos automatically as you type in Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, or Microsoft Project (available separately). Word even notices when you accidentally turn on Caps Lock and turns it off for you.
• Answer Wizard: To get help in any program, just type a question in your own words, and the Answer Wizard gives you the information you need.
• TipWizard® assistant: As you work, Microsoft Excel and Word sense what you're trying to achieve and suggest faster ways to accomplish the task.
• Spell-It: Microsoft Word identifies misspellings and marks them as you type. To fix a word, just click the right mouse button on a marked word and choose from the alternative spellings that appear.
• Multilevel Undo: Undo up to 99 changes in Microsoft Word and the PowerPoint presentation graphics program.
• Filter By Selection/Form: To search for all cases of an item in Microsoft Access, just select an item (such as a word or letter) and click the Filter By Selection button. Or perform more complex AND/ OR searches by selecting from a drop-down list using Filter By Form.
• Database Wizard: Starting with any of 20 customizable database templates, Microsoft Access automatically creates full-featured applications from scratch, including building all tables, queries, forms, and reports.
• Table Analyzer Wizard: If you have a flat-file list or spreadsheet, Microsoft Access can quickly transform this data into a powerful relational database.
• AutoCalculate: Select any combination of cells in a spreadsheet, and Microsoft Excel automatically displays a calculation on the status bar. Choose from average, sum, count, and more.
• AutoComplete: For repetitive entries, Microsoft Excel recognizes the item being typed and completes it for you.
• AutoFilter with Top 10: Microsoft Excel immediately filters through your information and shows the top (or bottom) performers by percentage or number.
