Hello Everybody,
Firstly Thanks for suggesting good books on Framemaker. I did get a decent
number of responses along with few "objections" on borrowing the software
from a friend.
I already got rid of the it. Believe me or not, especially when someone
suggested that there can be a risk of catching virus. Since the friend also
happens to be my sister-in-law, who has recently started a software company
and who owns the software but has never used it, when learnt my plans to buy
or take a formal course, insisted to take it. That's how i landed up
with it. Still, many of you might feel it is unethical. I did not realize
and see any harm initially as the software belongs to the family, but looks
like it can become an issue.
I might rather learn it buying a book which also has a CD.
No offence made to those who gave me a mini-lecture. It is always beneficial
to know the happenings in the real-world, which i'm not yet exposed to. SO
Thank you friends for all your advice and support.
Indrani.
