Get Up To Speed With Microsoft Word 2007

Released in January 2007, Microsoft Word 2007 has undergone some drastic changes, most noticeable of which is the replacement of the old menu and toolbar system with the new ribbon. The ribbon is the focal point of a new user interface designed to make it even quicker and easier to perform professional document authoring tasks. Once you are familiar with using the ribbon in Word 2007, you will find the transition to all the other products in Office 2007 a doddle - the ribbon is common to them all. And so are new concepts like themes and content controls.

Whether you create newsletters, articles, annual reports or update a blog, Microsoft Word 2007 enables you to create, edit and share content in a variety of formats. Themes allow you to change the entire look of a document with just a few mouse clicks. Building blocks give you the opportunity to create reusable content, helping you to cut down time spent on the creation and cross referencing of key information like document title, subtitle etc. Pictures you have inserted into your document can be enhanced quickly and easily with Quick Styles (effects include drop shadows, reflections, borders and more).
Briefly, Word 2007 is laden with a plethora of other new features, such as:
* mini toolbars
* key tips (adapting keyboard shortcuts)
* themes
* content controls
* blog integration
and the list goes on!
