Office 2007 Necessitates ‘Cheat Sheets’

The newest Microsoft Office suite has made enough interface changes that many who are not heavy, everyday users will need help in growing accustomed to the differences.

Computerworld has a series of articles delving into the changes, and giving concise instructions on how to immediately increase productivity.

Reading some of the comments on the articles, it is apparent that not all users are overjoyed with the interface changes. It’s easy enough to stay with an older revision at home, but at work, many will be forced into this, so a little preparation is probably a very good idea.

Hi,

We totally empathize with the disorientation users are experiencing with thew new Office which is why we created ToolbarToogle.

ToolbarToggle is an Office 2007 Add-In utility that brings back the original 2003 classic menus and toolbars into Office 2007 (Word / Excel PowerPoint).

After downloading and installing the free trial at http://WWW.TOOLBARTOGGLE.COM, Office 2007 will display the original Office 2003 toolbars and menus with or without the “fluent” Office 2007 Ribbon. Bottom line - we not only bring back the toolbars but also the ability to float, dock, crate new and customize any items with your office application’s macros and auto text. So it helps new user’s and power users at the same time.

Lastly, you can save any toolbar changes on a per document / spreadsheet / presentation.

Would love to get your feedback, thanks.

As soon as I install my copy of Office 2007, I’ll try it. Right now I do just fine for ALL my needs with Oxygen Office 2.2, which is, as you may know, an updated, more complete Open Office.
I’m sure others here will be trying your software also. Are you in anyway affiliated with Toggle Booleans?
Thanks for dropping by.

We are not affiliated with Toggle Booleans. Because of your wuestion I looked them up - their satire is a riot! Thanks for sharing that.
