Default Who here still uses old Office 2000 SP3?

I do not "use" MSO 2000 as my Office suite (have 2007 Ultimate and now
using 2010 Pro). I cannot do without--will not do without--the MS
Office 2000ShortcutBar. I have used it with Office XP and Office
2007 for years. It is working beautifully, as always, with MS Office
2010. Just requires installing it LAST (after the Office suite that
you are going to use) and doing a custom install of ONLY theShortcut
Baron the Tools menu.


I live in fear that MS will find some way to really kill it in a
future version of Office g--for now, I can expect to have it for at
least three years until the next MSO version come out.


Why not just put the Office products that you want to be available only one
click away onto the Quick LaunchBar, and be done with the OfficeShortcutBar?

With the advent of the Quick LaunchBarthat allows any of your favorite
applications to be only one click away, instead of the OfficeShortcutBar
that only holds Office applications, why do you keep theshortcutbar?


LOL--what makes you think that the Shortcut Bar only holds MSO
applications??? I have 156 applications on 9 Shortcut Bars--all in the
same installation/different colors for each of the 9 sliding bars.
That is what makes it so great--everything is right there. I tried the
Jumplists in Win7--completely unsatisfactory.

HOWEVER--today I have found a replacement for my old Shortcut Friend.
Works the same way (multiple groupings/subdirectories) and does not
"tell" MSO2010 that another MSO is "installed" which may be causing a
small problem. It's Winstep's Nexus Ultimate 10.4.

I'm preparing for the delivery of the MSO2010 disks...and saying
goodbye to an old friend.
