How do I set Microsoft Word to classic view?

[Guest]

Personally, I find the new Word 2007 version of the toolbars rather confusing
when compared to the Word 2003 version. And, I've always been considered a
computer person by everybody, so that's saying something! A number of Vista
styles, such as the theme and the look of the Start menu, can be toggled
between "Vista" and "classic". Couldn't they do the same for Word... and
other Office programs, while they're at it?

Dan,


ToolbarToggle has created an add-in for Word, Excel and PowerPoint that
brings back the original Office 2003 menus and toolbars into Office 2007 for
less than $20.

Besides being able to customize and add unlimited toolbars and menu items,
ToolbarToggle allows the old style floating and docking anywhere. Through a
key press, you can turn the Ribbon on or off, turn the commandbars and menus
on or off as well REPLACE the Ribbon entirely. ToolbarToggle even accepts
shortcut keys (Alt+F, Alt+E, etc..).

Please try the demo let us know if you feel this helps solve your problems.
