    I love the game of hunt the ribbon containing the function I need. Its remarkable how difficult finding things is compared to the consistency of menus in office 97-2003.

    Microsoft argues thats it easier for new users. shame about the impact it has on existing users.
    merely at clientco for the entertainment

      I've been using office 2007 for a couple of years now and I'm one of those weirdos who prefers the ribbon. Its actually more consistent as users can't mess around with the layout.

      anything else?

        Compared to 2007, or compared to older versions? The ribbon is hardly a new feature.

          Generally, I know the ribbon has been added to the rest of the office suite.

          In terms of compatibility, new features, old features which have been dropped how is it?

            I've jumped from Office 2003 and with Word and Excel I haven't had any problems so far. I tend not to use complex layouts or functionality int those apps. So not and issue. Outlook works "properly" now with IMAP servers, thumbs up there. But Access is really difficult to use now. I had customised the menus and being as I spent a lot of time in it - as I develop solutions in it - I now find myself utterly lost sometimes!

                    If you can't keep up, get out of the game. A negative attitude to change is invariably unhelpful.
