Default I HATE OFFICE 2007!!!!!!!!!

Can I reload Office 97 to run on the same system with Office 2007? I need to
take some online tests in Word and Excel which require exclusive use of the
toolbars and mouse...

You'd need to uninstall 2007 and then install 97. Once that is done
you could reinstall 2007 and tell it to keep the previous version of
Office.

Custom Install, to a version specific folder, only the two components you
require. I believe Word & Excel 97 work in Vista (having uninstalled 2007

Uninstall 2007 and then use the Custom install of Office 97 ONLY for Word and Excel. Make sure you do it to a specific allocated file

I HATE OFFICE 2007 too. Navigating thru Word 2007 and Excel 2007 is
disjointed and illogical. It definitely is not intuitive. Why did you
change something that worked well? Who made that decision????

Diane,

ToolbarToggle has created an add-in for Word, Excel and PowerPoint that
brings back the original Office 2003 menus and toolbars into Office 2007 for
less than $20.
Besides floating and docking the menus and toolbars anwhere, you can turn
the Ribbon on or off, turn the commandbars and menus on or off as well
REPLACE the Ribbon entirely.

Please try the demo let us know if you feel this helps solve your problems.

You can download ToolbarToggle from:
http://www.toolbartoggle.com
