[bcab] Re: OFFICE 2003 OR 2007

Hi

It's not a case of doing that. For tasks you will do often, there are
perfectly good keystrokes to learn, just as in previous versions. In fact,
some tasks are easier. There is excellent Jaws training on using Office 2007
as well, so make sure you listen to it. I hated it at first but now have the
opportunity to switch back if I wish, but am not doing. Ribbons are here to
stay, we all have to learn to navigate them and remember keystrokes.


Cheers
Dave

Personally I completely and absolutely agree.  I stuck with 2007 for about 3
weeks and absolutely loathed it, eventually moving back and using 2003
again. I remember the relief when I eventually had 2003 working fine as it
was before. I am by no means a computer luddite and consider myself  a
competent PC user but for me personally the  2007 interface was quite simply
dreadful.

I suppose one day I will have to return an grapple with tabbing and shift
tabbing for dozens of times through the ribbons but I will defer that  dark
day for as long as possible .

Regards

David Griffith

Richard,
 
I'd say stay away from 2007.  I've had it little over 2 months and still
can't quite crack it.  I find I'm hitting google daily to find out what to
do.  You need to really get to know the shortcuts once you have 2007 as the
menu bar is far from helpful.
 
Others may disagree, however, I use office relentlessly and have found 2007
has really slowed my productivity.  This may be due to getting used to new
software but 2 months for an updated package seems excessive to me.
 
HTH
 
Roger

        Hi, Currently using JFW 11 and Office 2003.  Have the chance to
install 2007 and wondered if this worked as well as 2003 yet?  
         
        Additionally, can one keep both versions on the PC?
        Thanks.
