Yikes, it sounds like it's just me after all :-)

As I worked through the new ribbon menus in Word to work on a large document
yesterday, I was conscious that the interface would be much more accessible
for new users. Maybe more importantly, it will also benefit the large group
of occasional users who struggle mightily to perform simple tasks.

Too wet outside (Seattle) for the rocker today so I'm back to wrestle with
my spec. Thanks for the encouragement,

Michael
