I seldom get a "how do I do that in 07?" request if I forget to include a parenthetical. A poll we took a while back showed that less than half of my Office audience has upgraded to 07 -- 07 is a dismal failure if that's all you consider. However, I know that "corporate" types have upgraded in large numbers. So, if MS is looking at only the hefty licensing, then yeah, they think it's a success. I could really use a new system, but I can't even face the Vista problem. I hate Vista and I would be miserable working on it, and danged if I want to pay extra for a downgrade to XP! What an obnoxious thing to do to your customers! Susan H.
