I have used Word 2007. They tried to fix what wasn't broken. And no, they didn't fix either the numbering system or multi-file operations. It's still oriented toward smaller documents with less complexity.
I also would avoid it for any XML work. My preference, but their past history of munging HTML files in export doesn't inspire trust. Their new GUI isn't intuitive, The use of icons isn't effective as they don't describe all things for all people. There is a very steep learning curve, and a lot of frustration. Since they don't use menus you can't refer to things easily for keyboard access to dialogs. You basically have to find MS's own help listing of keyboard equivalents, and then memorize them. It's not user friendly. Scott Writer wrote: > I have to agree with Carla on this point. Although, I'm tempted to amend her > statement to say "it would take AT LEAST 25-30% longer".
