What's new in Word 2007?

The first conspicuously new feature you'll encounter when you start Word will undoubtedly be the Ribbon, which is part of the new interface called Microsoft Office Fluent user interface. And if you've used previous versions of Word, you'll wonder where the menus and toolbars have gone. That's the beauty of the Ribbon. No longer do you have to wander through the maze of menus, submenus, and toolbars searching for what you want. On the Ribbon are all the commands, styles, and resources you need, arranged on task-oriented tabs. The one remaining toolbar is the Quick Access toolbar, where you can place your most frequently used commands and resources for easy access, regardless of which tab of the Ribbon is active.

Another part of the new Microsoft Office Fluent user interface interface is the galleries. These are the graphical equivalents of drop-down menus, except that they show you samples of all the choices that are available for you to “try on.” There are many different galleries—for styles, for themes, for page numbers, and so on. The galleries provide you with the ability to look before you leap. With Live Preview, you can see how the formatting you choose will change your text, pictures, or other content, or how the overall look of your document will change when you switch the theme simply by pointing to the different items in the galleries.

Some of the biggest changes you'll encounter are the new file types. Word uses a whole new file structure that, unfortunately, isn't directly compatible with earlier versions of Word. Of course, you can open and use files from earlier versions, but people who are using any earlier version of Word will need to download and install a converter so that they can open the documents you create using the Word 2007 file format. However, the good news is that the new file format is what enables many of the improvements in Word 2007.

Word 2007 also includes an entirely new graphics tool, SmartArt, which is designed to help you create diagrams and lists that graphically present your information. If you work with technical or legal documents into which you need to insert citations, a full bibliography, a list of works cited, or a legal table of authorities, you'll find that Word's bibliography and citations features are great new ways to take care of these often tedious and time-consuming chores.

And it's not only all the new stuff that's great. Some of Word's existing features have been much enhanced too. Checking your grammar and spelling has become more accurate, and you can now check the contextual use of words. If you're involved in mathematics, science, or engineering, you'll appreciate the enhanced Equations feature, which not only supplies some predesigned equations that you can edit but also makes it easy to create your own equations and save them for future use. Whether you need legal blacklining to indicate changes in a document or you need to track the changes reviewers make to your documents, you'll find the enhancements to the Track Changes feature—including the ability to distinguish between what has been added or deleted and what has been moved—really invaluable.

Word 2007 has also greatly improved document safety and security. You'll be better able to control access to your documents—for example, you can indicate when a document is completed and that no further changes may be made to it. You can easily check for and remove any sensitive or personal information in your documents that you don't want other people to have access to. You can digitally sign a document to provide verification in the electronic file that it really was you who signed it, and you can even attach a scanned image of your signature right there in the document. With Word's improved document-recovery system, your files are now more secure from loss, and the new file system also assists you in being able to recover files if they've become corrupted. And if you end up with system problems involving Word and your computer, you can easily run a series of diagnostics that can determine the problem and can then either fix it or get you the help you need to get it fixed.

Create charts in Excel 2007

I want to share my experience with Outlook Support and Email Support, and continuing with some information about Microsoft Excel 2007.
Charts can convey much more than numbers alone can because charts present data in a visual way that makes it easier to see the meaning behind the numbers. And with the new charting capabilities in Microsoft Office Excel 2007, it's easier than ever to turn raw data into meaningful information.
Charts start with data. In Office Excel 2007, you just select data in your worksheet, choose a chart type that best suits your purpose, and click. Want to try a different chart type? Just click again and select a new chart type from a huge range of possibilities. Then work with the new Chart Tools to customize the design, layout, and formatting of your chart. You can see how various options would look just by pointing at them in the dialog box — you don't have to spend time applying different selections to find the look you want. And when your chart is exactly the way you want it, you can save it as a template to use again, in Excel or in other 2007 Office system programs such as Word 2007.
Watch the demo to see how quickly and easily you can go from raw numbers to a powerful visual aid.

Proofing Tools of Power Point 2007

The following are some new features of the spelling checker:
The spelling checker has been made more consistent across the 2007 Microsoft Office system programs. Examples of this change include the following:
Several spelling checker options are now global. If you change one of these options in one Office program, that option is also changed for all the other Office programs. For more information, see the article Choose how spelling and grammar checking work.
In addition to sharing the same custom dictionaries, all programs can manage them by using the same dialog box. For more information, see the article Use custom dictionaries to add words to the spelling checker.
The 2007 Microsoft Office system spelling checker includes the post-reform French dictionary. In Microsoft Office 2003, this was an add-in that had to be separately installed. For more information, see the article Choose how spelling and grammar checking work.
An exclusion dictionary is automatically created for a language the first time that language is used. Exclusion dictionaries let you force the spelling checker to flag words you want to avoid using. They are handy for avoiding words that are obscene or that don't match your style guide. For more information, see the article Use exclusion dictionaries to specify a preferred spelling for a word.
The spelling checker can find and flag some contextual spelling errors. Have you ever typed a mistake similar to the following? I will see you their. In Office PowerPoint 2007, you can enable the Use contextual spelling option to get help with finding and fixing this type of mistake. This option is available when you check the spelling of documents in English, German, or Spanish. For more information, see the article Choose how spelling and grammar checking work.

Microsoft Office Communications Server

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007, OCS 2007, is an enterprise real-time communications server, providing the infrastructure to allow instant messaging, presence, audio-video conferencing and web conferencing functionality.
Client Software
Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 (MOC07) and Live Meeting console are the client side applications paired for use with OCS 2007. Microsoft Office Communicator leverages the OCS server to find, monitor, and communicate (instant messages, presence, and telephony) with other users within an organization.
Features
One basic use of Office Communications Server is instant messaging and presence within a single organization. This includes support for rich presence information, file transfer, instant messaging as well as voice and video communication. (These latter features are often not possible even within a single organisation using public IM clients, due to the effects of negotiating the corporate firewall and Network Address Translation).
OCS 2007 also supports remote users, both corporate users on the internet (e.g. home workers) as well as users in partner companies. OCS 2007 supports "federation" - enabling interoperability with other corporate IM networks. Federation can be configured either manually (where each partner manually configures the relevant edge servers in the other org) or based on use of the appropriate SRV records in the DNS.
Microsoft Office Communications Server uses the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for signaling along with the SIMPLE extensions to SIP for IM and presence. Media is transferred using RTP/SRTP. The Live Meeting client uses PSOM to download meeting content. The Communicator client also uses HTTPS to connect with the web components server to download address books, expand distribution lists, etc. By default, Office Communications Server encrypts all signaling and media traffic using SIP over TLS and SRTP. There is one exception to this - traffic between the Mediation Server and a basic media gateway is carried as SIP over TCP and RTP.
Compliance
OCS 2007 also has the capability to log and archive all instant message traffic passing through the server and to create Call Detail Records for conferences and voice. These features provide a measure of compliance, increasingly a legal requirement for many organizations, however the Archiving server is not an overall end-to-end compliance solution. Archiving requires you to install the Archiving Server and to configure front end servers accordingly.
Public IM Connectivity (PIC)
OCS 2007 also enables organizations to interoperate with the three of public IM providers: AOL, MSN, and Yahoo. PIC was first introduced with Service Pack 1 for Live Communications Server 2005, PIC is licensed separately.

• Translation tool tip option available for English (U.S.), French (France), and Spanish (International Sort). When selected, hovering the mouse cursor over a word will display its translation in the particular language. Non-English versions have different sets of languages. Other languages can be added by using a separate multilingual pack.
• Automated generation of citations and bibliographies according to defined style rules, including APA, Chicago, and MLA. Changing style updates all references automatically. Connect to web services to access online reference databases.
• Rearchitected native mathematical equation support with TeX-like linear input/edit language or GUI interface. Also supports the Unicode Plain Text Encoding of Mathematics.
• Preset gallery of cover pages with fields for Author, Title, Date, Abstract, etc. Cover pages follow the theme of the document (found under the Page Layout tab).
• Document comparison engine updated to support moves, differences in tables, and also easy to follow tri-pane view of original document, new document, and differences.
• Full screen reading layout that shows two pages at a time with maximal screen usage, plus a few critical tools for reviewing.
• Document Inspector which strips Word documents of information such as author name and comments and other "metadata".
• Building Blocks, which lets one save frequently used content, so that they are easily accessible for further use. Building blocks can have data mapped controls in them to allow for form building or structured document authoring.
• The ability to save multiple versions of a document (which had existed since Word 97) has been removed.
• Blog entries can be authored in Word itself and uploaded directly to a blog. Supported blogging sites include Windows Live Spaces, WordPress, SharePoint, Blogger, Community Server etc.

Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac

Microsoft office 2008 for Mac is the most recent version of the Microsoft Office productivity for suite for Mac OS X. It supersedes Office 2004 for Mac and is the Macintosh equivalent of office 2007, the latest version for Windows. It was developed by Microsoft’s Macintosh Business Unit and released on January 15, 2008.

Office 2008 for Mac was originally slated for release in the second half of 2007; however it was delayed until January 2008, citing the need to fix lingering bugs. Office 2008 is the first version of Office for Mac supplied as a Universal Binary.

Unlike Office 2007 for Windows, Office 2008 was not offered as a public beta before its scheduled release date.

Features

Office 2008 for Mac includes the same core programs currently included with Office 2004 for Mac: Entourage, Excel, PowerPoint and Word.

Mac-only features included are a publishing layout view, which offers functionality similar to Microsoft Publisher for Windows, a "Ledger Sheet mode" in Excel to ease financial tasks, and a "My Day" application offering a quick way to view the day's events.

Office 2008 supports the new Office Open XML format, and defaults to saving all files in this format. On February 21, 2008 Geoff Price revealed that the format conversion update for Office 2004 would be delayed until June 2008 in order to provide the first update to Office 2008.

Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications is not supported in this version. As a result such Excel add-ins as solver, which are dependent on VBA, were not bundled in this latest release. Excel in Office 2008 for the Mac also still lacks Pivot Chart functionality, which has long been a feature in the Windows version. Microsoft has announced that VBA will be making a return in the next version of Microsoft Office for Mac. AppleScript and the Open Scripting Architecture is, however, supported.

What is an Office Community?

If you are unfamiliar with the ins and outs of conversing with others over the Internet, don't worry. Once you take the plunge and join in, you'll find that working with discussion groups is not as difficult as you might think.

An Office Community is an online forum where you can interact with fellow Office users, get your questions answered, share ideas, and learn more about the Office products and technologies that interest you. This interaction with fellow Office users takes place in discussion groups (also known as newsgroups).

A discussion group is a place on the Internet where people interact by posting and reading messages about topics that are of interest to them and the rest of a community. Discussion groups in the Office Communities are organized by Office program, such as the Outlook New Users discussion group. Each discussion group contains a number of discussion threads, each of which contains a series of related messages. Each individual message either responds to an earlier message, or addresses the overall discussion group topic in some way. In contrast to e-mail messages that are sent to specific individuals and visible only to them, messages posted in a discussion group are visible and available to anyone and everyone.

Note: I have to sketch out the details once again before this Monday for a official presentation. But then what i want to share here with you is my experience of sharing the Microsoft Outlook and providing computer Help.

Collaboration features of Office 2007

SharePoint

Microsoft Office 2007 includes features geared towards collaboration and data sharing. As such, Microsoft Office 2007 features server components for applications such as Excel, which work in conjunction with SharePoint Services, to provide a collaboration platform. SharePoint works with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, which is used to host a SharePoint site, and uses IIS and ASP.NET 2.0. Excel server exposes Excel Services, which allows any worksheet to be created, edited and maintained via web browsers. It features Excel Web Access, the client-side component which is used to render the worksheet on a browser, Excel Calculation Service which is the server side component which populates the worksheet with data and perform calculations, and Excel Web Service that exposes Excel functionalities as individual web services. SharePoint can also be used to host Word documents for collaborative editing, by sharing a document. SharePoint can also be used to hold PowerPoint slides in a Slide Library, from which the slides can be used as a formatting template. It will also notify users of a slide automatically in case the source slide is modified. Also by using SharePoint, PowerPoint can manage shared review of presentations. Any SharePoint hosted document can be accessed from the application which created the document or from other applications such as a browser or Microsoft Office Outlook.

Groove

Microsoft Office Groove 2007

Microsoft Office 2007 also includes Groove, which brings collaborative features to a peer-to-peer paradigm. Groove can host documents, including presentations, workbooks and others, created in Microsoft Office 2007 application in a shared workspace, which can then be used in collaborative editing of documents. Groove can also be used in managing workspace sessions, including access control of the workspace. To collaborate on one or more documents, a Workspace has to be created, and then those who are to work on it have to be invited. Any file shared on the workspace are automatically shared among all participants. The application also provides real-time messaging, including one-to-one as well as group messaging, and presence features, as well as monitoring workspace activities with alerts, which are raised when pre-defined set of activities are detected. Groove also provides features for conflict resolution for conflicting edits. Schedules for a collaboration can also be decided by using a built-in shared calendar, which can also be used to keep track of the progress of a project. However, the calendar is not compatible with Microsoft Outlook.

Themes and Quick Styles

Microsoft Office 2007 places more emphasis on Document Themes and Quick Styles. The Document Theme defines the colors, fonts and graphic effects for a document. Almost everything that can be inserted into a document is automatically styled to match the overall document theme creating a consistent document design. The new Office Theme file format (.THMX) is shared between Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook email messages. Similar themes are also available for data reports in Access and Project or shapes in Visio. Quick Styles are galleries with a range of styles based on the current theme. There are quick styles galleries for text, tables, charts, SmartArt, WordArt and more. The style range goes from simple/light to more graphical/darker.

File formats of Office 2007

Office Open XML

Microsoft Office uses a new file format, called Office Open XML, as the default file format. Word documents (without macro extensions) are now saved using a .docx extension rather than the traditional .doc extension. Word 2007 can also save documents in the old format which is compatible with previous versions of Word. In addition, Microsoft has made available a free add-on known as the "Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack" that lets Office 2000-2003 editions open, edit, and save documents created under the new 2007 format.

Office Open XML is based on XML and uses the ZIP file container. According to Microsoft, documents created in this format are up to 75% smaller than the same documents saved with previous Microsoft Office file formats, owing to data compression.[18] Microsoft Office Excel and Microsoft Office PowerPoint also use the new OOXML file formats. Word files containing macros are saved with the extension .docm.

PDF

Microsoft had initially announced that it will support exporting to Portable Document Format (PDF) in Office 2007. However, due to legal objections from Adobe Systems, Office 2007 does not have PDF support out of the box, but offers it rather as a separate free download

XPS

Office 2007 documents can also be exported as XPS documents; via another free plug-in that is also a separate download.

Open Document

Microsoft backs an open-source effort to support Open Document in Office 2007, as well as earlier versions (up to Office 2000), through a converter add-in for Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and also a command-line utility.[21] As of 2008, the project supports conversion between ODF and Office Open XML file formats for all three applications.

User assistance system

In Microsoft Office 2007, the Office Assistants have been completely removed because of the much-improved help system. One feature of the new help system is the extensive use of Super Tooltips which explains in about one paragraph what each function performs. Some of them also use diagrams or pictures. These appear and disappear like normal tooltips, and replace normal tooltips in many areas. The Help content also directly integrates searching and viewing Office Online articles.
