Office 2007 is the worst piece of shyte I've had to work with in a long time. My company paid money to replace the bundled 2007 suite with a reliable Office 2003 suite.

We have Excel 2003 created workbooks with sheets that were created under 2007 that behave as they please. Cells that reformat themselves spontaneously are maddening; you have to specify a justification or it just chooses one it likes.

And then there's Word. In any version it's a pill to work with their stylesheets, creating new styles when you accidentally hit Ctrl-B instead of Ctrl-V, for example. Word 2007 does some things I really can't be bothered to figure out. On the laptop that still hasn't been retrofitted back to 2003 I use WordPad.
