Microsoft Office 2007
Reference and training
When you open a Microsoft Office 2007 program for the first time, you'll notice that is looks very different. That’s because they have implemented a new menu system called the Ribbon. For an introduction to the Ribbon, follow each of these links from the menu at the right: “How to use the Ribbon”, “Where is the File Menu?”, and “Quick Access Toolbar”. Below are more links to training material for each of the core Office 2007 products.
