Many versions of Microsoft Office ago (Office 97 I think) I remember there
being a Workbook program that allowed the user to combine many different
types of documents together into one folder. This was kind of like opening a
binder on your desk that contained any type of document i.e. word doc, excel
spreadsheet, powerpoint presentation, pictures, etc. Once opened the user
could easily jump from one document to another without hesitation and all the
documents would always be there just like flipping pages in a binder.

Does Microsoft have anything like that anymore?

Funny you should compare it to a binder ... that's what it was called. Binder.

I don't think there's anything quite like it any longer.

Yes, it was last seen in Office 2000. So 3 new versions have been
without it now.
