To be honest none. By the time we get to see it I would guess most of the functionality is set in stone. By the time I saw the ribbon in Access 2007 it was in place and I doubt nothing that I could say or pass on would have changed their minds. Given they had spend millions on development by that point.

I would say the ribbon is here to stay!

Just out of curiosity, did you see significant changes (improvements) in the
product as a result of the feedback?  If so, what kind, if you can say.

Over and over again directly. I have even forwarded on comments from members
of this list directly to them.

"they carried the word back. "  To any known effect?

It's been tried for at least the past 3 versions.  Some of Microsoft's early
testers for Access are members of this list and they carried the word back.
Many words.

Given all of the devoted and experienced access developers on this list, I
am amazed that someone here doesn't present these views to Clint Covington.
Or was that attempted in the past (and failed) ?
