View a comparison of Microsoft Office 2007 editions.p bImproved User Interface/bbr The Office Standard 2007 user interface makes it easier for people to use Office applications. The streamlined screen layout and dynamic results-oriented galleries let you spend more time focused on your work and less time trying to get the application to do what you need. As a result, the Office Standard 2007 interface can help deliver great looking documents, high-impact presentations, effective spreadsheets, and powerful desktop database applications.P bThe Ribbon/bbr Office Standard 2007 features the Ribbon, a new device that presents commands organized into a set of tabs, instead of traditional menus and toolbars. The tabs on the Ribbon display the commands that are most relevant for each of the task areas in the applications. For example, in Word, the tabs group commands for activities such as inserting objects like pictures and tables, doing page layout, working with references, doing mailings, and reviewing. For added convenience, the Home tab provides easy access to the most frequently used commands. Excel has a similar set of tabs that make sense for spreadsheet work including tabs for working with formulas, managing data, and reviewing. These tabs make it simple to access features because they organize the commands in a way that corresponds directly to the tasks you perform in the application you're using.P bThe Microsoft Office Button/bbr Many of the most valuable features in previous versions of Office were not about the document authoring experience and instead focused on all the things you can do with a document: share it, protect it, print it, publish it, and send it. Although this focus had its advantages, previous releases lacked a single central location where a user could see all of these capabilities in one place. Office Standard 2007's new interface, however, brings together the capabilities of the Office system into a single entry point: the Microsoft Office button. This button allows for two major advantages. First, it helps users find these valuable features. Second, it simplifies the authoring process by allowing the Ribbon to focus on creating great documents.P bContextual Tabs/bbr Office Standard 2007 features contextual tabs which bring important and appropriate command options to the user's attention precisely when they're needed most. Certain sets of commands are only relevant when objects of a particular type are being edited. For example, the commands for editing a chart are not relevant until a chart appears in a spreadsheet and the user is focusing on modifying it. In current versions of Office applications, these commands can be difficult to find. In Excel, however, clicking on a chart causes a contextual tab to appear with commands used for chart editing. Contextual tabs only appear when they are needed and make it much easier to find and use the commands needed for the operation at hand.P bGalleries/bbr Galleries are at the heart of the redesigned applications, and they deliver a set of clear results to choose from when working on your documents, spreadsheets, presentations, or Access databases. By presenting a simple set of potential results, rather than a complex dialog box with numerous options, galleries can simplify the process of producing professional looking work. For those who prefer a greater degree of control over the result of the operation, the traditional dialog box interfaces are still available.P bLive Preview/bbr Office Standard 2007 features Live Preview, a fresh and innovative technology that shows the results of applying an editing or formatting change as you move the pointer over the results presented in a gallery. This dynamic capability streamlines the process of laying out, editing, and formatting so you can create excellent results with less time and effort.

 dont buy this January 4, 2009
This product is not good...it takes a long time to install and you may not need a upgrade. I bought a new laptop and i took it to the store 4 times. They told me that i should purchase this product and once i did it didn't work. They gave me another disk instead of refunding me my 230.99...waste of money,,,very upset with microsoft......
 Another Major Dissapointment November 22, 2008
I only purchase this upgrade because my original OEM package did not have powerpoint.br /br /What I ended up with is another brain fart by Microsoft. What possessed them to go out of their way to incovenience long time users of the products is beyond explanation.br /br /What I have now is hours of lost productivity resulting from a completely remodeled GUI. LIke I really to spend my days learning a new interface. For what. What gain in functionality am I benefitting from.br /br /As far as I concerned from heere on out. Microsoft is populated by a bunch of jerks trying rip off the corporate world. Too bad they don't have to compete on merit.br /br /br /
Microsoft Upgrade ? November 16, 2008
This was a questionable review. I had XP and didn't know whether the upgrade would make me more current so that I would be more easily able to upgrade to Window' new product coming in a number of months. The upgrade really did bring me closer to Vista, but I've had a number of problems that have caused me to need to reinstall the upgrade.
Microsoft Office 2007 Okay but no real improvement over 2003 August 17, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've used Office 2003 since it came out and have been very happy with it. While there are a few more bells than 2003, I don't see a significant improvement over 2007's successor. Do I wish I hadn't bought it? No, there are a lot of templates that only work on Office 2007 that are dodgy at best on 2003. br /Would I say run out and get this. No. Since Vista we have all been waiting for something new from Microsoft to come out that really is an improvement.
