Hi Marie, To say it as nicely as possible, ribbons suck! LOL LOL
There is a little program called UBit that helps navigating the ribbons a little easier for Office 2007 & 2010 but, so far I haven't got it figured out for Office 2010. Below is the info: Below is the website link & information for the UBitMenu / SmallRibbonCorrector program. There is a download link for the program on the page as well. http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,84834/description.html UBitMenu screenshots/84834t Version: 1.4.0 Downloads Count: 9,544 License Type: Free Price: Free Date Added: Feb 1, 2011 Operating Systems: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 Requirements: Microsoft Office 2007 or 2010 File Size: 360 KB Author: UBit Sweiz HTH Take care.

Why is it necessary to add layer up on layer of key strokes or clicks when efficiency is measured by less not more.
