What's wrong with the 2007 ribbon being frustrating? What parts of it are
you having issues with? Let us help you, as I use it for work every day
practically, and absolutely swear by the ribbon! I honestly dono how I
lived without it!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Who Needs JAWS 12 Anyway?
One of the new features mentioned in the JAWS 12 preview I posted
yesterday is a "virtual ribbon" option that will emulate the classic menus
in Office 2003 while retaining the ribbon menu structure everyone loves to
hate. For those of you who do not plan to upgrade to JAWS 12, I just
discovered a great little app called Ubit Menu that adds the classic
Office 2003 menus to the Office 2007/10 ribbon menu. Once you download
and install this app, you bring up the ribbon menu by pressing Alt, right
arrow to the Menu tab and hit Enter. Then you can tab and shift tab
through the various classic 2003 menu options for Word, Excel and Power
Point. It works well with JAWS 9, and does not disrupt the existing
ribbon menu structure in any way. So you can have your cake and eat it
too; classic Office 2003 menus, or the newer and more frustrating Office
2007/10 ribbon menus. So who needs JAWS 12 anyway? Besides, Ubit Menu is
availabel now, so you don't have to wait for JAWS 12 to be released.
