1115478 2010-07-05 23:19:00 I just use 2007 and soon 2010 before it's the newest. MS call the shots and I just go with the flow I guess.

I had to customise the launch bar - that top left thing, it doesn't even have open and save icons by default I think. The NEW menu and print options in Word / office 2010 (www.imagef1.net.nz)

1115479 2010-07-05 23:24:00 Access 2007 is peculiar. You have a report that you designed right. You have one field only. Cos it picks up the data from a "table" and you set the field (like account number) to "right aligned" - when you view the report you will find some of the account numbers are not all lined up to the right. You place a ruler on your screen, you would know.

The launch bar isn't the Office Icon :confused: it's the one next to it, those little icons next to the Office icon. I see 2010 now have save and undo and maybe redo there, that drop down box allows you to customise it. I can see 2010 on your screenshot it has save but no open or close.

Surely one if not the most critical aspect of design is ease of use.

I mean the quick launch thing. Not the Office button. Nor now the 2010 File Menu. Althou one could customise it.
The one next to the W on the top left corner - the set of icons that are greyed out.

1115483 2010-07-06 03:42:00 Awh Ha ---- Office 2010 -- The default for the quick Launch are These here (www.imagef1.net.nz) - but under More commands / All commands Should keep anyone happy (www.imagef1.net.nz) wainuitech (129)
1115484 2010-07-06 03:48:00 Yes you gotta customise it. By default the open and close are not available at one click :rolleyes: Nomad (952)
1115485 2010-07-06 04:30:00 For the OP:
You could use the "XP mode" that is included with Windows 7 (its a Windows XP virtual machine) of course this won't be an option if your machine does not support Intel-VT or AMD-V.

here is a tool that will tell you if it is supported on your machine:
Download Hardware-Assisted Virtualization Detection Tool (go.microsoft.com)

The cool thing with XP Mode is you can run your app "outside" the VM window, so it behaves just like a normal app...

1115487 2010-07-06 05:22:00 Since W7 Home doesn't actually allow XP mode to work, you can always install VMlite (www.vmlite.com) - then drop in XPmode into that -- the PC doesn't even need to have a CPU that supports visualization. Install Office into that, and away you go, as if using XP. wainuitech (129)
