5 out of 5 stars Access users of the world unite   December 30, 2008
Mr. Ds Coghill
I have been using the 2000 version of Office for the last 8 years, and on seeing the more 3D interface of this version I decided to gamble on Office Professional 2007. I use Office primarily for creating databases on Access, but on occasion I use Excel, Word & Powerpoint too.

Almost all of the reviews given here on Amazon comment on a worse display, interface or a more crippling ability to convert from an old form of Office. I don't know about these facets, but what I can say is that in my experience Access, Word, Excel and general display is infinitely better than previous versions.

Not only the computer illuminati can now make very functionable programs using Access; any computer pleb can. I agree with a previous comment too that the lack of pop-up lists makes the interface closer to the more fashionable Mac.

Potential buyers should bear in mind that only people with personal grouses in their Office experience are likely to post a comment here. Most of us expect a company as gigantic as Microsoft to deliver the goods: I feel they really do with this version.

It's always sound commercial sense to shoot yourself in the foot by alientaing your core customers. I'm a self confessed early adopter, so I knew this would be a challenge but after many months I've given up and moved to Open Office!


1 out of 5 stars DON'T TRY THIS FOR TECHNICAL WORK   November 21, 2008

Don't think about using this for technical writing.

Besides the more general problems with Office 2007 (such as the greater time spent looking for various operations on all of the different menu tabs, the greatly reduced ability to customise the toolbars) there are big specific problems with technical writing.

1) Biggest problem: There are many journals that will not accept the docx format. Word 2007 CAN NOT save manuscripts in 'regular' .doc format, only a pseudo .doc format. For instance, equations are saved as uneditable graphics images. This is also unacceptable for writing journal articles, as well as sharing documents with other colleagues who do not use Office 2007.

2) Cross-hatching and stripping are indispensable for technical graphics, and have all been removed from Powerpoint.

3) I generally make graphs and plots with Excel and then cut and paste into Powerpoint in order to convert the plots into publication-quality images. For some reason when you do this with Office 2007 (which is much harder to do now), you end up with multiple objects that cannot be ungrouped.

I am not a Microsoftophobe and was quite happy with Office 2003, which I re-installed. My big worry is that at some point in time Microsoft will stop supporting 2003 and I'll have to move to OpenOffice or some other solution.



4 out of 5 stars Give it a chance !!   October 23, 2008

Accept it will take some getting used to if you are used to using Office.
Accept it is set out differently.
Accept, it is easier to use once you have used it a few times - everything is set out for you. Many of the features are now more accessible - once you've got used to the new format !
I like this version. A real pain in the butt when transferring between older versions of the Office packages - as you have to manually save it in compatibility mode or it is unreadable. But other than these few inconvieniences - I like it and prefer it. It does not take too long to get used to, but you do have to use it to learn it ! :) !




1 out of 5 stars Awful Interface - Don't Buy. Stick with Office 2003 or OpenOffice   October 5, 2008

No stars. I can only repeat what others have said about the inaccessibility and inflexibility of the command menus. A totally unnecessary revision and a complete waste of money. It is now uninstalled from my computer. Don't buy this awful product - stay with Office 2003 or try OpenOffice which is free.
