I expected the same reaction from both my wife and my boss when they were first faced with the new layouts. Oddly, neither of them said a thing to me or even asked my help with anything. In both cases it was months later when I thought to ask them if they were having any trouble and neither were.
Apparently, now that people have more screen real estate, it makes more sense to use ribbons than to hide things behind layers of menus. I think you made a huge mistake relenting right away and saddling her with a 10 year old version of the program. Soon she won't be able to open any documents people send her. I know in my wife's case pretty much all the stuff she gets now is in the new format. On Sat, Mar 21, 2009 at 6:40 PM, Marcio <[email protected]> wrote: > My wife is refusing to use Word 2007.
