 Office Small Bus. 2007 April 12, 2008

I received my product just as ordered. Wonderful service. I am having a hard time learning to use it, so if you are not real computer "savvy", you might want to stick with Office 2003.
 Change for the sake of change January 8, 2008
I bought this because my Palm Pilot and new I Touch would not sync up with my older version of Outlook. The good news: they both synched up!
The bad news: There is a slew of new menus to learn to do the simplest of Word, Excel, or Power Pt functions. For example, the icon to open a file in Word or Excel is not displayed. You can add it to a teeny menu if you like (took a while to find that). Other menus are set. For instance in "Home" menu mode, half the menu is taken up with "Style." You can't get rid of it that I know of. Then there was that heart stopping moment when I did get to the open screen and found none of my old Word documents there. I had to select 1997-2003. Phew. Of course Word reminds me that I'm using that mode all the time.
I guess my point is: Was there an effort to make this compatible in format and use for the average user or was this designed for professional keyboarders?
Also, though I don't know if it's related, once "upgraded" to 2007, my Internet Explorer locks up constantly. Could it be the constant Windows desktop search indexing? Don't know. Could just be a coincidence. Maybe MS will work on the 100 error messages I've submitted over the past week.

The Code needed to activate the software did not work. I called Microsoft and they said that the product (which I bought as new) had a code for a product that should have been installed in a new computer. It should not have been sold as an off the shelf software. I returned the product for credit.
Great job Microsoft December 11, 2007
Office 2007 Upgrade is all I expected and more. Installed like a breeze. Works great. One thing my wife says, while typing email in Outlook, the screen lags somewhat behind the typing. She says not a problem for her. She's confident MS will correct the problem. Can not understand why some take issue with the software. I think it's great and a big step forward in office software tech. Hats off to Microsoft.

After all these years, the trolls in Redmond still have not learned how to produce user-friendly software. There was no reason to make the changes to Office that they've made; it was simply a way to justify an unnecessary upgrade that has turned out to be a downgrade. Users with a moderate understanding of how Office operated will find themselves flummoxed when attempting to do things they had finally learned how to do in the old version.
The much-vaunted ribbons are confusing and counter-intuitive. Microsoft addresses this problem by offering free self-paced trainng courses, apparently oblivious to the fact that time iS money, unless of course, it's Microsoft's time.
At the very least, one expects backward compatibility, that is unless you're dealing with Mr. Bill's minions. I loaded Word files created with Office XP, only to find the Office 2007 converted them with serious defects, like inserting tabs in all paragraphs whenever you inserted one in a single paragraph. And, of course, if you delete a tab stop from one paragraph, you delete it from all of them.
Useless.
