Matt, since you’re a “power user”, why don’t you checks out the INTERNET first before buying the software in the first place? Plus, from the 2007 betas, you can see that it’s not compatible with older version (for *.*x format) of Microsoft Office suite. Don’t give an excuse like it isn’t anywhere as it’s all stated on the INTERNET. Plus there’s always Compatibility Pack, or get your lazy fingers to click and change default save option to older format.

Dear Dan,

Thanks. I use “Compatibility Mode” and don’t save my files in .docx. I’m just not going to bother with getting the inevitable e-mail saying, “Sorry, can’t open the attached file.”

Dear Someone,

First, nowhere does Microsoft apprise the customer buying 2007 that (without the add-on of a compatibility pack you mention) any files saved in the “x” format will not be readable by previous versions. Nowhere. Unfortunately, this vital piece of information is kept from the consumer until the package has been opened and is, hence, unreturnable.

Second, the fact that Microsoft quietly (secretly?) sent out the compatibility pack as part of its regular update schedule . . . well, that kind of says it all, doesn’t it?

I think I actually like outspace. I’m having billions of problems with Office 2010, the “Office” button, doesnt even show the office logo on it – instead it says “File`f” – and the uninstaller is borked too.

[...] Disabling Office 2010 “Backstage View” In Microsoft Office 2010 clicking on the Office button (what was previously an orb) will take you to a place called Backstage View (codenamed Outspace) instead of showing the menu we were used to in Office 2007. A simple registry hack, however, will revert back to the old method of doing things. [...]

@Matthew W I Dunn, you call yourself a power user, yet you don’t seem to be aware that previous versions (2003, 2002 and your beloved 2000) can open .docx documents after installing a freely downloadable compatibility pack?

I *am* a “power user” (an academic); have been using 2007 since it came out; and, still think it sucks in comparison to the 2000 version I was using.

It was the first time I ever had to go on the technical message boards to figure out what the heck 2007 was doing to my documents. Oh, by the way, Microsoft, thanks for stating on the packaging before I opened it that the .docx format would be unrecognized by previous versions. It was also the first time that I started considering — I mean, really considering and not just kvetching about — buying a competitor’s product.

It did feel like a completely different world at first but it’s a much nicer world after getting used to it. The fully customizable ribbon will ultimately put to rest any menus/toolbars vs ribbon issues. (poor 2007 users are the only ones left with a non-customizable UI). Overall I’m liking 2010. Startup of all apps is awesome fast and responsive compared to 2007, File format choosing UI is there! I noticed there’ll be themes (beta 2 onwards) and you can create your own too using the Theme builder from Connect? PowerPoint seems to be catching up on effects, actions and transitions and Word on typography which it has never done at all. VSTO is there OOTB. Office Document Imaging/Scanning are gone from 64-bit, I hope MS is not killing them in the 64-bit version. Office apps don’t confirm if you want to Save or Open and directly open the document if you click on a document link from IE because the apps have got “protected view”. InfoPath Editor might be given away free to improve its adoption.

[...] Nota por Admin on Jul 13th, 2009 and filed under General, Tecnologia. You can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0. You can skip to the end and leave a response. Pinging is currently not allowed. Ahora que se acaba de filtrar la Beta 1 de Office 2010 es probable que muchos más usuarios empiecen a probar esta nueva versión de la suite ofimática de Microsoft. Pero como sucede siempre en estos casos, habrán personas a las que no les agraden los cambios en la interfaz que hay con respecto a la versión anterior. Y si hace unos años el “enemigo” era la interfaz Ribbon, ahora probablemente lo será el nuevo menú “Outspace”, que reemplaza al clásico menú principal Office 2007 (ya hablamos sobre este cambio hace un tiempo). A pesar de que presenta muchas mejoras respecto al anterior menú, sobre todo en cuanto a tareas como imprimir documentos, o cambiar las propiedades del archivo, siempre habrán personas que prefieran seguir trabjando la interfaz a la que estaban acostumbradas. Por suerte, deshacerse de la rupturista interfaz Outspace es algo relativamente sencillo de lograr, ya que no requiere que instalemos software adicional, sino que sólo debemos ir al Registro de Windows, y navegar por la siguiente ruta HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice14.0CommonToolbars Una vez ahí, hay que crear un valor DWORD llamado “UseOutspace“, y asignarle el valor 0 (si queremos desactivar la caraterística) o el valor 1 (si queremos dejar todo “como está). Eso sí, al aplicar este hack nos encontraremos con un pequeño bug al acceder al menú Ribbon: el “botón de Office” aparecerá partido por la mitad, con la parte de arriba con una apariencia acorde con la Ribbon Scenic, y la parte de abajo con el estilo de Office 2007. Aprovechamos este post para contarles también que ya está disponible Outlook Connector para Office 2010, tanto en sus versiones de 32 bits como de 64 bits. Vía | Within Windows [...]

The released Office 2010 version is technical _preview_, not a beta. It’s not even an alpha, it’s an earlier stage. :)
