While the linked utility that Jay mentions is excellent and even its free
version will add the main drop down menus, there is no way to get the look
and feel of Word 2003 in Word 2007. Most of the 2003 keyboard shortcuts
should work and most of the functionality is buried in the new version. All
you have to do is learn where
If you still have Word 2003, you could re-install it and use it in parallel
with Word 2007 until you are up to speed with the new version. See

Is there any way to get back to the 2003 look & feel?
I've used Office products for 16 years & am lost without the 'normal'
menus - which I continue to use at work. I made the mistake of buying
office 2007, thinking it was an improvement as most other of the
upgrades have been in the past.
I am not graphically oriented so the pictures shown in the ribbon is
basically incomprehensible to me.
While I have many 2003 key combinations memorized, I don't have all
of them and I can't find where they are now - even after looking in
the help files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
