Not to mention Microsoft is forcing the docx on everyone. Try saving a .doc file while it's on the desktop....it moves...magically. .docx files don't. MS programmed 2010 word to create the .doc save temp file in the exact location of the original file icon. It's a huge annoyance, that will probably get people to stop using .doc altogether pretty quickly. I suppose whoever thought of the trick got a bonus vacation or something.

Your clients will have to adapt to the new changes. It's called progress.
The old style toolbars are not coming back and it is not just MS Office who has moved away from them.
Better to learn them now rather than try to get to grips with them in two years time.

As for MS Word 2010 - a great improvement over 2007. Some excellent features in the new Office suite.

Well done Microsoft, keep up the good work.

Nothing beneficial for most businesses - no reason to upgrade/purchase -

Like Vista - all bling - no function.

If they wanted to improve Office they SHOULD have -
1. Made outlook open multiple e-mail accounts as full exchange -not an additional mailbox with some functionality or pop/imap with very limited functionality but two seperate exchange profiles simultaneously from multiple exchange servers.

2. Full OLE support for pictures in access - umm wasn't that functional with Office XP - why take that out? Why should someone have to code to add pictures to a personal database? Might was well use oracle or a real database if you are going to have to use code. Adding Office XP photo editor is the work around but why not just add photo editor back into office if that is the solution?

3. Offer the old menu bar for people (most of my clients) who don't want to learn the new menu bar. You can finally modify the ribbon to some extent in 2010 however my clients just want their old ribbon bar. Frankly I have no issue with the new menu bar but I'm one person and most of my clients don't like it so prefer to stick with office 2003. MS could make money selling the new version if they just offered the old menu as a choice with the new ribbon.
