PCWorld: Add-ons To Improve Microsoft Office
This collection of Office plug-ins includes one that adds tabbed document management, another that makes it easier to find functions in Office’s new (to some) ribbon interface, and another that simulates the old pre-ribbon Office interface.
“Anyone who uses Microsoft Office will agree on two things: It’s a powerful collection of applications, and it needs improvements.
Here are six programs that bring Office a lot closer to what it should be. The first three work across multiple Office applications, improving the much-loved–and much-hated–ribbon-based interface. The other three are application-specific, giving Outlook, Word, and Excel additional capabilities that Microsoft either didn’t think of or didn’t bother with.”
