Okay, I guess, the next obvious question would be, what is the program to turn the modern menu I'll call it into the ribben type menu? If I understood you correctly?

Hi there,A "Ribbon" (am I spelling it right?) is a type of user interface that replaces menu bars. Instead of menus, the items are displayed in bunch of tabs, and each menu item is displayed as a button under a certain tab. For example, the Edit menu is now Writing Tab and functions such as Copy, Cut, Paste and other editing functions as buttons instead of menu items. There is a specific program that restores old "Classic" menu bar on Officce 2007 programs (Ribbon is availible under Word, Excel and Outbook, specifically where you compose your messages).Cheers, Joseph----- Original Message ----- From: "J.
