Thread: Office 2007

Office 2007 is an obvious departure from the past. The familiar menus and tool bars of previous versions have been replaced with the Ribbon, which is bigger and has a very clever trick up its sleeve. The Ribbon is separated into a series of tabs that each represent a category of tasks, such as Home for basic tasks and View for display options. When selected, each tab displays its own group of icons. The idea is to make better use of the tool bar space so that more useful options are available. This might seem confusing at first, but it's very easy to master and this feature will explain everything you need to know. You can always stay in control of the Ribbon and there are plenty of helpful kevboard shortcuts.
