We recently upgraded to Office 2007 and it's driving me nuts. I am in the habitat of saving frequently, like every time I type a sentence. When I have a Word document in track changes every time I hit save (Ctrl-S) a popup tells me I am in track changes and asks if I want to continue with the save. Normally you can check a box that says "Don't show me this message anymore" but there is no such box. I asked our IM folks to look into it and they said there is no way to disable this annoying feature. Since I do a lot of writing and editing on my job it is driving me nuts and is wasting a lot of time. Help, does anyone know if I can disable this feature?
 
They upgraded us to it at work, and I got so frustrated with it and the stupid ever changing menus at the top I uninstalled it and went back to 2003.

I do a lot of work with Macro's in our excel spreadsheets and 2007 is a nightmare.

Microsoft really messed that up.

Years ago we had WordPerfect. I knew that program inside and out and it worked very nicely at the time (mid-90s) then they switched us to MSWord and it has been a pain in the neck ever since.

There is a compatibility mode you can turn on in Word so that it responds to all the keys/buttons like you are used to in W.P.

I'm not sure if this is in 2007, but it was in previous versions and worked well with your templates that used to be above the F Key's
