DIFFERENCES BETWEEN OFFICE 2007

AND OFFICE 2010

SUITE WIDE HIGHLIGHTS

THE FILE TAB REPLACES THE

MS OFFICE BUTTON.

The most visible change in the look and feel of the Office interface is substitution of the File tab for the MS Office button. When you click the File tab, you will see most of the features that you formerly saw in the MS Button, but with a new look, called the Backstage view. Backstage view is a file management view where you can open or save files, set permissions, define document properties, print or share documents, manage versions of files, etc. In Backstage view, the document will also preview automatically before printing. This tab is the same color as the application icon and does not change color when you move to another tab. * Right clicking in File tab is not available to add a shortcut to the Quick Launch Toolbar. * To exit, click on another tab, press the ESC key, or click on the File tab again.

THE RIBBON IS NOW USED IN THE ENTIRE OFFICE 2010 SUITE

The introduction of the ribbon is most noticeable in Outlook, but is also now available in the entire suite.

“The Ribbon contains the set of commands for working IN a document,

while Microsoft Office Backstage is the set of commands you use to do

things TO a document.”1

CUSTOMIZING THE RIBBON

1 Microsoft Office Help files.

It is now possible to customize the Ribbon in Office 2010 in much the same way as you were able to customize the Quick Access Toolbar. You can create your own tabs, rename existing tabs or move them around on the Ribbon. You can also create new groups for your tabs. This functionality will allow you to bring up commands that were buried in a dialog box or just group all of your favorites together on one new tab. [See document Customizing the Ribbon for more on this functionality.]

You will also notice a small button to the left of the Help button located in the upper right corner of the Office window. Clicking this button will minimize the Ribbon to give you a larger workspace. However, the tabs will stay in place to allow you to access the Ribbon commands. This feature was also available in Office 2007 by double-clicking any tab on the Ribbon, which still works in Office 2010

PRINTING HAS BEEN MADE EASIER.

Print Preview automatically displays when you click on the Print button in the File tab or use keyboard shortcut Ctrl+P .The options of the Print dialog box such as the number of copies, pages to print, duplex printing, and more are also incorporated in this view. * Make sure to select the appropriate printer

before selecting other options such as duplex printing or a specific page range . Your selections will

revert back to the default settings otherwise. * There is no X to close Print Preview. To get out of it, click the File tab again, another tab, or the ESC key.

PROTECTED VIEW

I found Microsoft’s new security features to be a welcome addition. Every time you download a document from the Internet and open it, Office 2010 applications will open it in a ‘Protected view that won’t allow you to edit the document unless you enable editing of the document. When this happens, you see a warning on the Message bar, along with the option to enable editing. You can control which originating sources trigger Protected View. You can also set specific file types to open in Protected View regardless of where they originate.

PASTE PREVIEW

Paste Preview is a new copy and paste feature that comes with Office 2010. You can now paste correctly the first time without having to Undo. In addition, a newly designed Paste Options button gives the options to keep source formatting, merge formatting, or to keep text only.

“Another new feature we appreciate, Paste Preview does away with blind cutting and pasting by showing you what items in the clipboard will look like when you paste them into a document. It works across most of the applications of Office 2010. Once you have content stored in the clipboard, just mouse over the paste button to view available

paste options.” 2

This text was copied from a website. Normally, when you then go to paste this into your document it will copy the formatting from the webpage. Using Paste Preview allows you to discard the formatting and only paste the copied materials as text.

PICTURE EDITING IMPROVEMENTS

Picture editing capabilities are greatly enhanced in Office 2010. New tools such as sharpen and soften, as well as improved brightness and contrast tools are available. A background removal tool is a brand new feature, as are some new SmartArt layouts. Once you choose a different layout from the Ribbon, a wide variety of SmartArt tools are available to enhance your pictures.

NEW THEMES AND SMART ART IMPROVEMENTS

Approximately 25 new themes for professional designs have been added in Microsoft Office 2010 as well as several additional SmartArt graphics layouts. You can insert pictures into the various layouts or convert pictures directly into SmartArt graphics, and each shape has a caption where you can add descriptive text. View theme options in the Page Layout tab.

NEW SCREENSHOT FEATURE

There is a new Screenshot feature for capturing pictures of any program that is not minimized to the Taskbar and inserting them into open documents in various Office applications. You can also clip a screenshot so that you don’t have to insert the entire application window. This is available from the Inset tab for all Office 2010 users who, unlike on library computers, do not have PrintKey Pro.

BETTER IMAGE COMPRESSION AND CROPPING

You now have better control of the image quality and compression tradeoffs, so that you can make the right choice for the medium (print, screen, e-mail) that your document will be used for. To access:

1. Click on your image, 2. Click on the picture tools tab and 3. Then click on compress pictures in the

Adjust group. 4. The dialog box will give you options for

adjustment. (See image right).

HELP PREVENT CHANGES TO A FINAL VERSION OF A DOCUMENT

When you complete a document that you want to share with others, you can Mark [it]As Final to make the document read-only and thereby let others know that this is a final document. When a document is marked as final, typing editing commands, and proofing marks are disabled, and people who view the document cannot unintentionally change the document. However, this is not a security feature, a protected document because anyone can edit it by turning off the Mark As Final feature. To add security in editing features, go to File and click on Protect Document to see protection options. [See #1 at right]

RECOVER UNSAVED WORK

It is now easier to recover a Word document if you accidentally close your file without saving, or if you want to review or return to an earlier version of the file you're already working in. As with earlier versions of Word, enabling AutoRecover will save versions while you are working in your file at the interval you select.

Also, while you are working in your file, you can access a list of the autosaved files from the Microsoft Office Backstage view.

To access the auto-saved versions, click on the File tab. The Info tab will display. Use the Versions

section of the page to access older versions of the document. Please note that the AutoRecover

functionality does NOT apply to users at the public computers after they log off.

COMPARE OPTION ON THE REVIEW MENU

In Office 2010 you can now compare 2 documents and see what is

different between them. The documents that are being compared

are not changed when you do this. The comparison that is

displayed by default is a new third document.

To compare, do the following:

Open the documents that you want to compare.

Navigate to the Review tab, to the Compare group and

click Compare.

Click Compare two versions of a document (legal blackline).

Under Original document, browse until you find the first document that you want to compare.

Then under Revised

document, browse for the

2nd document.

Click More. Then select the settings for what you want to compare in the documents.

Under Show changes, choose whether you

want to show character or word level

changes.

If you do not want to display changes in a

new third document, choose which

document you want the changes to appear

in.

Please note that any options that you select

in More become the default comparison

options until you change them.

Click OK.

If there are changes in either version of the

document, the program displays a message

box.

Click Yes to accept the changes and compare the documents.

NEW DOCUMENT NAVIGATION PANE

The new Navigation Pane is available from the View tab – Show group. It is best used for long documents because it enables users to quickly move between headings in a document by clicking on the parts in this new pane. Features include the following:

Document reorganization by dragging and dropping headings instead of copying and pasting. And you can delete, cut, or copy headings and their content from within this pane. Similar to the Navigation Pane in PowerPoint.

Collapse levels of the outline to hide nested headings, so you can work easily with the map even in deeply structured and complicated long documents.

Type text into the search box to find your place instantly.

Easily promote or demote a given heading, or a heading and all of its nested headings, up or down within the hierarchy.

Add new headings to your document to build a basic outline or insert new headings without having to scroll around in the document.

Stay aware of the content being edited by others by browsing the headings that contain a co-authoring indicator.

See thumbnails of all the pages in your document and click on them to move through your document.

TRANSLATION OPTIONS

When you turn on the Mini Translator, you can point to a word or selected phrase with your

mouse and see a translation in a small window. The Mini Translator also includes a Play button so

you can hear an audio pronunciation of the word or phrase and a Copy button so you can paste

the translation into another document.

You don't even need the language pack,

language interface pack, or proofing tools

installed on your computer to see a translation

in that language. This works on the English

language version – or whatever you have set as

the document language. It does not work on

text in another language inserted into your

document. For that you can do the following:

o Click on the Review tab.

o Click on Translate in the Language group.

EXCEL

Improvement in Excel 2010 include sparklines and slicers, improvements to PivotTables and other

existing features, which help users to discover patterns or trends in their data that can lead to more-

informed decisions. Better visualization of data is a key aim.

SPARKLINES

You can use sparklines—tiny charts that fit in a cell—to visually summarize trends

alongside data. Because sparklines show trends in a small amount of space, they are

especially useful for dashboards or other places where you need to show a snapshot of

your business in an easy-to-understand visual format. In the following image, the

sparklines that appear in the Trend column let you see at a glance how each salesperson

performed during the year. Available from the Insert Tab.

Click Insert

Go to the Sparklines Group

Choose type of display – line, column or win/loss. A Create Sparklines dialog

box appears.

Choose the range of cells that have the data that you want to display.

Then choose the cell where you want to display that data.

IMPROVED CONDITIONAL FORMATTING OPTIONS

Conditional formatting makes it easy to highlight interesting cells or ranges of cells,

to emphasize unusual values, and visualize data by using data bars, color scales,

and icon sets. Excel 2010 offers increased formatting flexibility for these options.

These are available from the Home tab. Click on the Styles Group and choose

Conditional Formatting.

1. Color Scales example

2. Icon Sets Dialog box.

Icon sets let you display icons for different categories of data, based on whatever threshold you determine. For example, you can use a green up arrow to represent higher values, a yellow sideways arrow to represent middle values, and a red down arrow to represent lower values. In Excel 2010, you have access to more icon sets, including triangles, stars, and boxes. You can also mix and match icons from different sets and more easily hide icons from view—for example, you might choose to show icons only for high profit values and omit them for middle and lower values.

3. Data bars

Excel 2010 comes with new formatting options for data bars. You can apply solid fills or borders to the data bar, or set the bar direction from right-to-left instead of left-to-right. In addition, data bars for negative values appear on the opposite side of an axis from positive values, as shown here.

EVEN MORE VISUAL IMPACT IN EXCEL 2010

In addition to the picture, Smart Art and screenshot improvements that are offered in the entire Office 2010 Suite, Excel 2010 has much improved charting options making it much easier to work with.

Specific improvements include:

New charting limits the limitation on the number of data points that can be created on a chart has been removed. The number of data points is limited only by available memory. This enables people to more effectively visualize and analyze large sets of data.

Quick access to formatting options You can instantly access formatting options by double-clicking a chart element.

POWERPOINT

ORGANIZE YOUR SLIDES INTO SECTIONS

You can organize large slide decks to be more manageable and easier to navigate by using sections. Additionally, you can collaborate with others to create a presentation by labeling and grouping your slides into sections. For example, each colleague can be responsible for preparing slides for a separate section. [Show Web 2.0 presentation organized in sections] To add sections: 1. Click on the area between the slides you wish to separate in

the slide sorter. 2. Make sure that the Home tab located in the Ribbon is active

and click on the Section button. 3. When the menu appears, click on Add Section. – OR – 1. Right-click on the space between the slides you wish to

section off. 2. Click on Add Section from the menu.

After the section is created you will notice that it will appear as a bar dividing the slides where you initially indicated. The default name for the section is Untitled Section. All of the slides after the section name will be included within that section. 3. To name the section, right-click on the section. 4. Choose Rename Section from the menu. To view the sections of your document go to the View tab and then choose Slide Sorter. Each section will display on its own line(s). You can also right click on a section and choose Collapse all to collapse all of the sections in Normal view. Double clicking on a

section header will open just that section for you to work on. Note that the number of slides in each section appears next to the name of the section in the list You can name, print, and apply effects to an entire section.

WORK WITH SEPARATE POWERPOINT PRESENTATION FILES IN DIFFERENT WINDOWS

You can run multiple presentations on a single monitor, side-by-side. Your presentations are not bound

by a main or parent window any longer, so you now have a great way to reference one presentation

while working on another. And you can easily copy and paste a slide from one presentation into another.

Also, you can use the new Reading view to show two presentations in a slide show in separately

managed windows simultaneously, with full animation effects and full media support.

VIDEOS

There is a lot of new functionality available for videos within PowerPoint 2010.

Highlights include:

When you insert videos into your presentations, they become part of the presentation file. No more

missing video files as you move your presentations around. You can also easily compress your files.

There are a lot of Video effects that you can add from within PowerPoint. They include: trimming

your videos, adding synchronized overlay text, poster frames, bookmarks, and fades. And, as you

can do with pictures, you can also apply a border, shadow, reflection, glow, soft edges, 3-D rotation,

bevels, and other designer effects to your videos. Furthermore, when your video plays back, so do

all the effects. You can use transitions with 3-D motion graphic effects, copy and paste animated

effects from one object (either text or shapes) to another. And you can turn your entire

presentation into a video.

TURN YOUR MOUSE INTO A LASER POINTER

When you want to emphasize a point on a slide, you can turn your mouse pointer into a laser

pointer.

In Slide Show view, simply hold down CTRL, click the left mouse button, and begin pointing.

OUTLOOK

THE NEW LOOK OF OUTLOOK

Outlook has now joined the ranks of the other Office applications and now has the functionality offered

in Office 2007 – [the Ribbon, the Quick Access Toolbar, the Mini toolbar (when in a composing mode)]

but with the 2010 updates that are system wide. This includes the addition of the File tab with its

Backstage view instead of the Microsoft Office button, the ability to customize the ribbon, and much

more.

SPECIFIC OUTLOOK ENHANCEMENTS

CONVERSATIONS

Conversations are an improved way of

viewing your messages. This view improves

tracking and managing related messages,

regardless of the folder that contains the

messages. You can see the complete course

of the conversation, including your

responses, find the most recent responses,

and more easily determine the message

most important to you. You can also easily

categorize or ignore a complete conversation.

When a new message is received, the entire

conversation moves with it to the top of

your Inbox.

Ignore Conversation If a conversation is no

longer relevant to you, you can prevent

additional responses from appearing in your

Inbox. The Ignore command moves the whole Conversation and any future messages that arrive in

the Conversation to the Deleted Items folder

Clean Up Conversations When a message contains all the previous messages in the Conversation,

you can click Clean Up to eliminate the other redundant messages. For example, as people reply to a

Conversation, the response is at the top and the previous messages in the Conversation are below.

Instead of reviewing each message, keep only the most recent that includes the whole Conversation.

QUICK STEPS

The Quick Steps group is on the Home tab.

This area allows users to process and file

their messages faster and to turn

commands and procedures that they use

most often into one click. You can customize the default Quick

FORGOTTEN SUBJECTS

When you click Send on a message that does not have a

subject, a message appears to confirm that you did

indeed mean to send it without a subject.

RESIZE ATTACHED PHOTOS

When you include an email that exceeds the message size limit for your or the recipient’s server your

email will be bounced, i.e. returned to you. Outlook 2010 now offers an option for resizing large
