I hate the ribbon -- bring the menus back!
What frustrates me about Office 2007 is the ribbon is not consistant across the programs. I got used to of the ribbon that it frustrates me when I have to use Publisher or InfoPath which still have the pull down menus. You can expect that the next version of Office will use the Ribbon for all programs.

So if the ribbon is such a great idea, why isn't it part of OneNote 2007 ?

Microsoft focused on a few of the products - the ones more heavily used.
Publisher doesn't have it either - or Visio. Be thankful that you have a few programs that still look the same. By the time the other programs get the ribbon, you'll be an old pro with it. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "Nigel" wrote in message ...

Or Project or the Outlook Main Window. But rest assured, the Ribbon is coming as it has been a great success for everyone except intransigent power users, and even they are starting to succumb.

Unlikely - I've downloaded a third party add-in that gives me classic menus.

Intransigent ? Rather an extreme term - next we'll be labelled heretics or a
threat to National Security ;-) I'll happily get around the constraints of the ribbon with third-party add-ins. "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: Or Project or the Outlook Main Window.

And continue to rely on a kludge as everyone else moves forward.

I'm probably an intransigent non-power user but I don't much like the ribbon, either but I find it usable. However I did get rid of the ribbon and it was an easy fix, I installed Office 2003 (not my choice, needed compatibility with Office versions at work). Don't much like 2003, either. I liked Office 2.0! I sorta liked Office 97. Don't much care for anything later but then I really liked NT 4.0....
