The most obvious change to Office 2007 is the new ribbon bar. Based on the data collected in the User Feedback process, the ribbon changes the visible icons based on what you are doing.

This dynamic look might be to everybody's taste so this addon returns the tradition menu titles to Office members Word, Excel, Access, Outlook and Powerpoint 2007.

As well as the menu titles, the old toolbars are also restored.
