How do I turn off all the styles
Word 2007 is sucking up my time with attempting to get a basic set of styles
and banishing the rest to style hell. I am already advising the University of Calgary academic community to stay away from this product. We do not have time to learn how to deal with this program. It is nothing short of horrific! MS Terror would be a more fitting name. All I want to be able to do is to creat a style set with 5 - 7 styles in order to set up an academic writing template. I then want to be able to rip out all the other crap and banish it. Right now there are so many 'styles' and 'quick styles' that it is consumes vast amount of my time to attempt to get this program to function as a word processing program. I want to disable the mouse over feature. I want to get rid of the horrible boxy quick style menu. I want to get rid of all the preloaded styles. THen I can build the styles I need without the frustration of all the other crap clouding and obscuring anything I try to accomplish. I JUST WANT A PROGRAM THAT DOES WORD PROCESSING. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHETHER MS WILL ALLOW PURCHASERS TO TRADE THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE IN FOR 2003? At least you could get it to do want you wanted! It seems that this latest evolution is made for mindless people who could care less about docuemt regimen and just want to be able to click on a bunch of buttons to see what the result looks like! |

How do I turn off all the styles
Additional to Suzanne's pointer...
From Word Help: Turn off the Mini toolbar Microsoft Office Word 2007, Microsoft Office Excel 2007, or Office PowerPoint 2007 Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Program Name Options, where Program Name is the name of the program you are currently in. Click Popular, and then under Top options for working with Program Name, clear the Show Mini Toolbar on selection check box, where Program Name is the name of the program. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones Office:Mac MVP "Horrified by MS Office" Horrified by MS wrote in message ...
