Default Word 2007 is "More intuitive??"

The experience seems to be that the new UI is more intuitive for brand-new
users and not too difficult for casual users to get used to. Longtime power
users, the ones who knew where every command was on every menu and where
every button was in every dialog or on every toolbar (and had their toolbars
and menus extensively customized), are the ones who are really suffering.

I hope it just that this new interface is still strange to me, but I am
finding the migration from Office 2007 to be far more difficult than was
any
previous change.
I have used Office since version 97 (in 1998) and have migrated to new
releases as the minds in Washington state decided it was time for me to
change. Those were all painless.
Any and all opinion are welcomed to help enlighten me.

And by the way, Ron deBruin, an Excel MVP has an excellent site at

may
prove valuable for Word and PowerPoint as well.
