Use the Ribbon instead of toolbars and menus• When you first start some of the programs in 2007 Microsoft Office system, you may
be surprised by what you see. The menus and toolbars in some programs have been replaced with the Ribbon, which is part of the Microsoft Office Fluent user interface.
• The Ribbon is designed to help you quickly find the commands that you need to complete a task.
• Commands are organized in logical groups, which are collected together under tabs.
• Each tab relates to a type of activity, such as writing or laying out a page.
• To reduce clutter, some tabs are shown only when needed. For example, the Picture Tools tab is shown only when a picture is selected.

Use the keyboardOkay, keyboard people, these slides are for you.
The Ribbon design comes with new shortcuts.
• There are shortcuts for every single button on the Ribbon.
• Shortcuts often require fewer keys.
This change brings two big advantages over previous versions of Office programs:
![Page 15: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Keyboard shortcuts for Microsoft Office Word
• The keyboard shortcuts that are described in this Help topic refer to the U.S. keyboard layout. Keys on other layouts might not correspond exactly to the keys on a U.S. keyboard.
• For keyboard shortcuts in which you press two or more keys simultaneously, the keys to press are separated by a plus sign (+) in Microsoft Office Word 2007 Help. For keyboard shortcuts in which you press one key immediately followed by another key, the keys to press are separated by a comma (,).

The first impression and view of a document is very important for the reader. The options listed underneath are the most important ones. These can make the document nice looking, but also very bad. A professional document should have a standard font (like Times New Roman or Arial), appropriate size (normal text size 12), and black color. The layout of the text should make the reader comfortable – it should be easy to read. In thesis, or other large documents, the text is often aligned to both the left and right margins. This creates a clean look at both sides of the text. Additional extra space are put in between words as necessary.

Overview: A hands-on introduction
Excel 2007 has a new look! It’s got the familiar worksheets you’re accustomed to, but with some changes.
Notably, the old look of menus and buttons at the top of the window has been replaced with the Ribbon.
![Page 137: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)
More commands, but only when you need them
The commands on the Ribbon are the ones you use the most.
Instead of showing every command all the time, Excel 2007 shows some commands only when you may need them, in response to an action you take.
So don’t worry if you don’t see all the commands you need at all times. Take the first steps, and the commands you need will be at hand.
![Page 138: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/138.jpg)
More options, if you need them Sometimes an
arrow, called the Dialog Box Launcher, appears in the lower-right corner of a group.
This means more options are available for the group.

On the Home tab, click the arrow in the Font group.
Click the Dialog Box Launcher , and you’ll see a dialog box or task pane. The picture shows an example:
The Format Cells dialog box opens, with superscript and other options related to fonts.

What about favorite keyboard shortcuts?
If you rely on the keyboard more than the mouse, you’ll want to know that the Ribbon design comes with new shortcuts.
• There are shortcuts for every single button on the Ribbon.
• Shortcuts often require fewer keys.
This change brings two big advantages over previous versions of Excel:
![Page 140: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/140.jpg)
What about favorite keyboard shortcuts?
The new shortcuts also have a new name: Key Tips.
For example, here’s how to use Key Tips to center text:
You press ALT to make Key Tips appear.
Press ALT to make the Key Tips appear.
Press H to select the Home tab.
Press A, then C to center the selected text.

A new view
Not only the Ribbon is new in Excel 2007.
Page Layout view is new, too.
If you’ve worked in Print Layout view in Microsoft Office Word, you’ll be glad to see Excel with similar advantages.
![Page 142: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/142.jpg)
Working with different screen resolutions
Everything described so far applies if your screen is set to high resolution and the Excel window is maximized.
If not, things look different.
• When the Excel window isn’t maximized. Some groups will display only the group name.
When and how do things look different?
• With Tablet PCs. On those with smaller screens, the Ribbon adjusts to show smaller versions of tabs and groups.

Microsoft Outlook 2007
What’s New?
![Page 147: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/147.jpg)
Overview: A new version of OutlookLook out! There’s a new version of Outlook.
It has a whole new look along with new features. But don’t worry, that doesn’t mean you’ll need to spend a lot of time learning a new program.
Instead, the new design and new features will help you more efficiently and easily accomplish the tasks you do in Outlook every day.
![Page 148: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/148.jpg)
What’s changed and whyThe first time you create a message in Outlook 2007 (or open one you receive), you’ll see the Ribbon.
It’s the band across the top of the window.
One of the most dramatic changes in Outlook, the Ribbon gives Outlook its new look.
But as you get up to speed, you’ll see that the change is more than visual—it’s there to help you get things done more easily and with fewer steps.
![Page 149: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/149.jpg)
Introducing the RibbonHere’s a new e-mail message. The Ribbon is at the top of the window.
The Ribbon is visible each time you create or edit something in Outlook.
Why the new system? Microsoft carefully researched how people use commands in Outlook.
As a result of that research, some Outlook commands are now more prominent, and common commands are displayed and grouped in ways that make them easy to find and use.
![Page 150: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/150.jpg)
A closer look at the Ribbon
To better help you learn how to use the Ribbon, here’s a guide to its basic arrangement.

Tabs: The Ribbon is made up of different tabs, each related to specific kinds of work you do in Outlook.
Groups: Each tab has several groups that show related items together.
Commands: A command is a button, a box to enter information, or a menu.
![Page 151: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/151.jpg)
The Ribbon shows what you need
Once again, you’ll encounter the Ribbon when you take certain actions such as creating messages, calendar entries, or contacts.
The Ribbon shows tabs and commands appropriate for what you’re doing.
That is, the tabs on the Ribbon will differ depending on the area of Outlook you’re working in.
![Page 152: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/152.jpg)
The picture shows some of these differences.

There’s more than meets the eyeA small arrow at the bottom of a group means there’s more available than what you see.
This button is called the Dialog Box Launcher.
The picture shows that to see a full list of font options, you’d click the arrow next to the Basic Text group on the Message tab of a new e-mail message.
![Page 154: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/154.jpg)
The Mini toolbarThe Mini toolbar allows you to quickly access formatting commands right where you need them: in the body of an e-mail message.

Select your text by dragging with your mouse, and then point at the selection.
The Mini toolbar appears in a faded fashion. If you point to it, it becomes solid. You can click a formatting option.
The picture shows how it works:
![Page 155: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/155.jpg)
The Quick Access ToolbarThe Quick Access Toolbar is a small toolbar above the Ribbon.
It’s there to make the commands you need and use most often readily available.
What’s best about the Quick Access Toolbar? What’s on it is up to you.
That is, you can add your favorite commands to it with a simple right-click.
![Page 156: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/156.jpg)
A new look for the calendarThe new design of the calendar in Outlook 2007 makes it easier to see what’s what.
Moving around is easier, too.
3 Also new is the Tasks area. It shows your current and upcoming tasks and tracks your accomplishments, too.
The picture shows some examples:
![Page 157: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/157.jpg)
A new look for contactsIn Outlook 2007, Electronic Business Cards make contacts easy to view and easy to share.
You’ll first notice the new look for contacts when you click Contacts to switch to that area of Outlook. You can send Electronic Business Cards through e-mail. You might want to include your own Electronic Business Card as part of your e-mail signature.
![Page 158: An introduction to microsoft office 2007 lecture](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061113/54597db4b1af9fcf338b582a/html5/thumbnails/158.jpg)

You can minimize the Navigation Pane from any area of Outlook by clicking the Minimize the Navigation Pane button.
