CSC 175 Final Project
Due: Friday, May 16th by noon
Submit by email to Michael.Litman@cuw.edu
For this project, you should have completed all labs covering Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, and Macros.
The project is for you to create your own business that will require Word, Excel, Access, and Macros to
be used on a daily basis. Up to this point, we have used all of the Microsoft Office applications except
Power Point. So for this project, you will be creating a power point presentation that fulfills the
following requirements:
1. Describes your business in terms of what it does, who your customers are, and why they should
use your company.
2. Describe your company’s technology needs in terms of computer, internet connection, etc…
3. For each of the above, support the needs with reasons why they are needed. For example, if
you need a 15 Mbps internet connection, explain why.
4. Describe your company’s software needs including Microsoft Office.
5. For each of the above, support the needs with reasons why they are needed. For example, if
you need Adobe Acrobat Reader, tell me why.
6. Describe in detail how your company will use each of the following in your business
a. Microsoft Word
b. Microsoft Excel
c. Microsoft Access
d. Macros
7. Conclude by discussing whether your company’s Microsoft Office requirement could be met
with an Open Source solution like Open Office
-Your power point presentation should be long enough to give about a 20 minute presentation, although
you will not have to actually present. Just email me your completed presentation.
