What you see is what you get. There are some utilities that add a semblance
of Word 2003's menu structure eg http://ribboncustomizer.com/ , but that is
all it is and I don't feel it helps get to grips with working with 2007's
new ribbon interface. If you want the 2003 interface, you will have to
re-install 2003.

Can I pick up on this thread.
I have a full license for 2007, but seriously dislike the appearance.
Both my laptop and my employers use the 2003 version of Word, and I
find its appearance and menu structure infinitely preferable to the
new.
The new interface is not in any way helpful to me.
Is there any way in Word 2007 that I can amend my viewing preferences
to the classic style? This is a new build PC so I don't have a roll
back option. Believe me I would take it with pleasure.

Thank you for the quick reply Graham. Life is really too short for me to spend hours trying to make the software usable.
Once simple tasks are now a real pain in the nether regions. It looks as if
I shall have to revert to Open Office, keeping this product just for those
occasions when I really have an issue with formatting something awkward. I
really wish I hadn't wasted my money now.
