Word 2007 migration woes Allen_N 12/22/2008 3:24:00 AM Does anyone know of a lookup table that maps the changes between 2003 settings/menus and those of 2007 ? I wanted to disable "automatically update document styles", and it took me half an hour to find it (under the 'Developer' tab, for God's sake !) Word 2007 'Help' returned numerous search results that did not contain all the search phrases; I had to follow links within the pages it returned, finally getting the anwser from a user comment at the end of a page. In fact, 2007 'Help' is the most useless version of Office Help ever. What happened to context-sensitivity? If I've overlooked something obvious please feel free to chastise me, but Word 2007 feels more like sabotage than productivity enhancement.
