Who here still uses old Office 2000 SP3?
I do in my old, updated Windows XP Pro. SP3 machine. I rarely use Office
anymore so it doesn't bother me. I also have the 2007 file format conversion pack and the latest updates before MS stopped supporting Office 2000. -- "Better (to be) an ant's head than a lion's tail." --Armenian and Maltese /\___/\ Phil./Ant @ http://antfarm.ma.cx (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \ Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | \ _ / If crediting, then use Ant nickname and AQFL URL/link. ( ) If e-mailing, then axe ANT from its address if needed. Ant is currently not listening to any songs on this computer. |

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 2000 Shortcut Bar. 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 the Shortcut Bar on 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 Launch Bar, and be done with the Office Shortcut Bar? With the advent of the Quick Launch Bar that allows any of your favorite applications to be only one click away, instead of the Office Shortcut Bar that only holds Office applications, why do you keep the shortcut bar? |

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. |

You can put the same things onto the Quick Launch Bar. I guess that under my rock, it makes no sense to have nine shortcut bars sutffed full of 156 different applications. The whole point of the shortcut bar -- and quick launch, for that matter -- is to let you identify a handful of applications that you need to get to with a single click and not have them take up lots of real estate on the screen. When you put every application you own onto nine different shortcut bars, this pretty much defeats the purpose. But hey, that's just me. I have 15 or so icons on the Quick launch Bar so I can get them open with a single click, and the others on the Desktop where I get at them with a single click, then a double click to start the one I need. If I do this enough times with the same application, I drag it to the Qucik Launch and revaluate the need for one of the existing icons to be on the Quick Launch. I was a big fan of the Office Shortcut Bar in the olden days before Quick Launch. I kept lots of different things there, but it takes up an entire border of the screen, so one may as well put all of the apps they can onto the shortcut bar. I mean, if the bar is gonna take the space anyhow, it may as well be filled with icons. But I have to question the usefulness of nine shortcut bars filled with 156 applications. Seems you need to put on your Systgem Programmer's hat and develop a shortcut bar. I just drag the Task Bar to give three rows of icons, and then drag the border of the Quick Launch bar to the right so the space will hold the icons I want. /JS |
