Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Course contents Overview: A new look to familiar programs Lesson 1: The new Office: Made for you Lesson 2: Answers to critical questions Each lesson includes a list of suggested tasks and a set of test questions.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Overview: A new look to familiar programs When you open a 2007 Microsoft Office system program, youll see a lot thats familiar. But youll also notice a new look at the top of the window. Menus and toolbars have been replaced by the Ribbon, which contains tabs that you click to get to commands. This presentation introduces you to the Ribbon and other new ways to make better documents, faster.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Course goals See how the 2007 Office system has changed, and why. Use the Ribbon to do what youre used to doing. See what the new file formats mean to you.

Lesson 1 The new Office: Made for you

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system The new Office: Made for you Yes, theres a lot of change to familiar Microsoft Office programs. But its good change. With the Ribbon, commands and other tools you need are now exposed and more readily available.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Whats on the Ribbon? The three parts of the Ribbon are tabs, groups, and commands. Tabs sit across the top of the Ribbon. Each one represents core tasks you do in a given program. Groups are sets of related commands. They remain on display and readily available, giving you rich visual aids. Commands are arranged in groups. A command can be a button, a menu, or a box where you enter information.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Whats on the Ribbon? How do you get started? In Word 2007, for example, thats the Home tab. Its got the commands that people use most commonly when they write documents: font formatting commands (Font group), paragraph options (Paragraph group), and text styles (Styles group). Begin with the first tab.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system How commands are organized Commands are organized by how theyre used. Frequently used core commands no longer have to share space with a range of remotely related commands on a menu or toolbar. Theyre the ones that get used, and so now theyre the ones most prominently featured.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system More commands, but only when you need them Commands you use most are available on the Ribbon all the time. Others appear only when you need them, in response to an action you take. For example, the Picture Tools in Word appear on the Ribbon when you insert a picture, and they go away when youre done. The Ribbon responds to your action. So dont worry if you dont see all the commands at all times. Take the first steps, and what you need will appear.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system 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. For example, to get to a less commonly used font option in PowerPoint ® 2007: The Font dialog box opens, with the full selection of font commands.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Preview before you select Are you familiar with the try-undo-try cycle? You make a change, its not what you want, and so you undo and keep trying until you get what you had in mind. Now you can see a live preview of your choice before you make a selection, which saves you time and gives you better results. Animation: Right-click, and click Play.

Now you can see a live preview of your choice before you make a selection, which saves you time and gives you better results.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Put commands on your own toolbar Do you often use commands that arent as quickly available as youd like? You can easily add them to the Quick Access Toolbar. Located above the Ribbon when you first start your Microsoft Office program, the Quick Access Toolbar puts commands where theyre always visible and near at hand. Animation: Right-click, and click Play.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Working with different screen resolutions Everything described so far applies if your screen is set to high resolution and the program window is maximized. If not, things look different. Low resolution: If your screen is set to a low resolution, a few groups on the Ribbon will display the group name only, not the commands in the group. Click the arrow on the group button to display the commands. How? Like this:

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Working with different screen resolutions Everything described so far applies if your screen is set to high resolution and the program window is maximized. If not, things look different. Screen not maximized: Some groups will display only the group names. How? Like this: Tablet PCs: On those with smaller screens, the Ribbon adjusts to show smaller versions of tabs and groups.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Suggestions for practice 1.Add a bulleted list in Word. 2.Apply heading styles in Word. 3.Insert a picture into a Word document. 4.Format text in Word using the Mini toolbar. 5.Add a button to the Quick Access Toolbar in Excel ®, and then delete one. 6.Find more Excel options. Online practiceOnline practice (requires Word 2007 and Excel 2007, part of the 2007 Microsoft Office system)

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Test 1, question 1 The Paste, Cut, and Copy commands appear where on the Ribbon? (Pick one answer.) 1.On the last tab. 2.On the first tab. 3.On the Quick Access Toolbar.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Test 1, question 1: Answer On the first tab. These commands are used frequently, so they logically appear on the first tab of the Ribbon. Of course, you can add them to the Quick Access Toolbar if you want.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Test 1, question 2 You move from a computer with a high screen resolution to one with a low resolution. You dont see the commands in one group. What do you do? (Pick one answer.) 1.Click the View tab. 2.Click the View toolbar. 3.Click the arrow on the group button.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Test 1, question 2: Answer Click the arrow on the group button. If commands are not displayed, either because of screen resolution or because the program window isnt maximized, you can display commands in a group by clicking the arrow on the group button.

Lesson 2 Answers to critical questions

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Answers to critical questions Now its time to look beyond the Ribbon and see what else is new. The Microsoft Office Button is new, as are new keyboard shortcuts and new file formats for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access In this lesson, youll find out how to work with some of the new options.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What happened to the File menu? The Microsoft Office Button appears in the upper-left corner of the window in several Microsoft Office programs, such as Word and Excel. But the button offers more commands than the File menu did.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What happened to the File menu? The Microsoft Office Button also leads you to the program settings that control things like your preferences for correcting spelling. In previous versions of Office programs you could set options in the Options dialog box, which you opened through the Tools menu. Many of those options can now be found when you click the Microsoft Office Button.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Where do I start a blank document? When you create a new document, workbook, presentation, or database, youll get a full, colorful window to help you begin. You can start with a blank or existing file, as youre accustomed to doing. Or to jump-start your authoring work, look on the left. Under Microsoft Office Online, click Featured, and choose from the catalog of links to online templates and training courses.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What about favorite keyboard shortcuts? If you rely on the keyboard more than the mouse, youll 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 Office programs:

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What about favorite keyboard shortcuts? The new shortcuts also have a new name: Key Tips. The picture shows an example of using Key Tips to remove a heading style in Word. Press ALT to make the Key Tips appear. Press H to select the Home tab. Press E to select the Clear Formatting button in the Font group to remove the heading style.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Keyboard shortcuts of old that begin with CTRL are still intact, and you can use them as you always have. For example, the shortcut CTRL+C still copies something to the clipboard, and the shortcut CTRL+V still pastes something from the clipboard. What about favorite keyboard shortcuts? What about the old keyboard shortcuts?

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What if I cant find a command? If you cant find the command youre looking for, theres help. For Word 2007, Excel 2007, and PowerPoint 2007, theres a visual, interactive reference guide to help you quickly learn where things are. Animation: Right-click, and click Play.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What about the new file formats? Word 2007, Excel 2007, and PowerPoint 2007 use new file formats. Increased security for your files and reduced chances of file corruption. Reduced file size. New features. There are lots of great reasons for the change:

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system For documents, workbooks, and presentations, the default file format now has an x on the end, representing the XML format. For example, in Word, a document is now saved by default with the extension.docx, rather than.doc. If you save a file as a template, the same applies: You get the template extension of old, with an x on the end; for example,.dotx in Word. If your file contains code or macros, you have to save it using the new macro-enabled file format. For a Word document, that translates into.docm; for a Word template, its.dotm. What about the new file formats? A bit more about the new format in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint:

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Working with files from earlier versions You may be the first in your group to get the 2007 Office system. Or you may work with departments that need to use Office documents saved in an earlier format. Dont worry, you can still share documents between the 2007 Office system and earlier versions of Office programs.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system You can open a file created in previous versions of Office programs, from 95 through Just open the file as usual. –After working with it in the 2007 version, you may want to save the file. By default, the Save As dialog box saves a file created in a previous version as that same version. –As you save, a Compatibility Checker will let you know of any new features added to the file that may be disabled, or matched as closely as possible. Working with files from earlier versions Heres how:

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system Colleagues who have Word, Excel, or PowerPoint versions 2000 through 2003 (and the latest patches and service packs) can open 2007 files. Working with files from earlier versions Heres how: –When they open your document, they will be asked if they want to download a converter that will let them open your document.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system What about the new file format in Access? The new file format in Access 2007,.accdb, supports new product features. For example, Access supports the attachment data typewhich lets you store documents and files as compressed attachments in your databaseand multivalued fields.

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system When you create a new database in Access 2007, the database automatically uses the new.accdb format. –Earlier versions of Access use the.mdb file format. You can open and work with.mdb files in Access 2007, if those files were saved in Access 2003, Access 2002, or Access –However, the new features in Access 2007 will not work for.mdb files. If you want to use the new features, use Save As to convert the database to the.accdb format. What about the new file format in Access? Version compatibility

Get up to speed with the 2007 Office system When you use Access 2007 to open a database saved in Access 95 or Access 97, Access 2007 offers to upgrade it to the.accdb format. What about the new file format in Access? Version compatibility –If you dont plan to use the database with earlier versions of Access (and you do not use replication or user level security), you should upgrade the database. –Important: You cannot open a database in.accdb file format with any version of Access but Access 2007.
