Re: Word 2007 -- How Alone Am I?

I like the new interface and will continue to use it however, it would much
prefered if a little time was spent on makeing peoples lives easier, simple
opperations for simple tasks. I appreciate the time MS spends developing
software, the problem is the money bug, less time should be spent on how to
get more of our money and more time spent on functionality. I like the new
office 2007 and Vista, but really? is it much more then a new skin for xp
with a few new features and more security. I used office 97, office 2000, now
2007. I had win 98se upgraded to Me then a short time later an upgrade to XP
was available. Three times money was wanted from us in three years! hmmm.
Appreciate the fact XP did a nice long run, even though i never spent my
money and stuggled along with my old ME. The computer is still running strong
but cant support any new software should I upgrade it to xp or throw it in
the garbage. The landfills are full of theese old boxes and we pay to dispose
of them. Anyway i think were off topic.

After much trial and error just trying to do a simple thing like create a
resume, and send it off to prospective employers. Unfortunately the file
extension created in office 2007 doesnt allow many people to open it. I had
to go back and resave everything as a word doc. now if i could go back and
save my 150.00 bucks! Its not amater of learning a new program but why cant
we have something universal?

Ive concluded that the only true wysiwyg is the old fashioned pen and
paper... microsoft does this so that everyone has to update its all about the
cash baby! They dont just want your money they want all of our money.

"open office" is a great alternative and its FREE also compatiable with ms
office

Are you using Windows Vista? If so, then click the name of the folder you
want to jump to at the top of the dialog box (they have little arrows to the
left of the folder names). I actually like this better than the Up One Level
option since I can see which folder I'm navigating to and I can jump to any
of the folders in the path in a single click.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for

One more question -- when I open the directory in Word (control O), there
used to be an icon (an up "arrow") that would let me go up one level to
the
previous place you were in the directory -- I've not found this in yet. I
seem to have to go back to the "tree" along side the directory. I know
I'm
not explaining this well. Can you help?
