Hi Mary

OK, are you saying just open the word file in DBT as in from Windows Explorer?  
I seem to remember there used to be something under the file menu if the 
templates were installed in order to have the file you were working on in Word 
sent to DBT.  I am basically trying to add paragraphs and other styles to this 
file which was originally just a plain text file.  But I cannot find out h=how 
on earth you're supposed to do things like centre text, put text into a 
heading, etc., in Word 2010.  These ribbons really are a pain in the neck, I 
really do not like them.

On a different subject, I simply can't get Outlook 2010 to play nice at all.  I 
cannot get around these ribbons there either to be honest.  I think Microsoft 
has really made their product worse by the implementation of this new layout.

Hi Gordon,

You have to open Word files in DBT in order for them to translate. Doing it in 
Word won't really help.

The ribbons can be cumbersome to navigate. I have found the virtual ribbons 
thing to be even more cumbersome, but some people like them.

I do not get alt-tab. What do you have your verbosity set at?
