Honestly, Eleanor, it's quite straightforward using Office 2007, and for the bits of it I want to use, the old keystrokes still work. There are plenty of cheat-sheets on the Web to help you learn the new keystrokes too, and some free utilities that put a mock-up of the old menus in there, though that's not really necessary in my view. The ribbon that seems to have caused some people to have kittens is just a glorified toolbar, is very accessible, and has, for each item a help message. I'm sure you'll get to grips with it very quickly when the time comes.

Hi Elanor, one thing worth noting is you could make the jump and still use your 2003 key strokes as they work in 2007, I am referring to the ones that 
start with alt specifically
That would make it less painful

Colin

Thanks Ted, I know I should learn but while the PCs I have and the 203 works 

I will soldier on.

Eleanor, like you I use Office 2003 quite happily with Windows 7.

The only snag I can see is in time to come, with a new version of
Windows,
2003 may not work. By then, people like us who haven't made the effort to 


learn new tricks will be left behind by the rest of the world.

In spite of that, this old dog continues to cling to the familiar.

Best wishes,  Ted.

Hi
I use Office 2003 quite happily. What would be the advantage of me
moving to say Office 2007 or 2010? I actually have new versions of
each but I only see it as a great learning curve rather than an
advantage. Would be interested in comments.
