Microsoft Office will not help you learn to make a website. The best
thing to do is learn HTML. It's not very difficult, and there are lots
of tutorials online, just search for them at your favorite search
engine. I recommend starting with this one:
http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
If you are looking for a good program to use to build the website, and
you aren't comfortable doing all the html by hand, I recommend using
Macromedia's Dreamweaver. I'm not sure of the cost, but it really is the
best one that I have found.
Good luck.

Does anyone know what the best way to learn how to build a website? I am
thinking that maybe there is some type of on-line tutorial program or
something more straitforward than the microsoft office book i have, which is
about 1 foot thick and i don't have time to read it all. thanks.

Macromedia Dreamweaver is an excellent tool, and has extensive tutorial
material included. You can download a trial copy from
http://www.macromedia.com/downloads/ If you want to see how others have
written their pages you can check out the source code of any web page by
right-clicking and choosing View Source (in IE, don't remember what you do
in Netscape). Here are a few links that may be useful in getting started:

PS Almost forgot the most important things - a bunch of markers and lots
of paper. No point in firing up the software if you don't know what
you're going to create with it.
