Is there a list ANYWHERE of new features in Office 2007 apps.

[angela9000]

I have spent several hours over the last couple of weeks trying to find a
list of whats new/changed in Word, Excel, Outlook,Access & Powerpoint 2007
(Other than just the appearance of the Ribbon).

On Microsoft's site I can find a list of underlying technology changes, but
I need a list or lists from the User's point of view, and for first line
support staff.

I'd be really grateful if you can point me towards one. I need to present to
an organisation in a couple of weeks, and want to try to include everything
relevant to users.

Thanx

That is more of a technical view though. For example, the "whats changed in
Excel 2007" discusses multi-threaded calculation (which users are not
actually aware of), but doesn't mention the new conditional formatting
facilities.
It's wizzy new features like these that I want to have an exhaustive list
of, and there isn't one.
I'm really surprised Microsoft's marketing dept have missed that trick.

Thanks anyway Jay, but it isn't what I'm looking for.

I am putting in the hours compiling my own list right now.

This might provide additional elements:

Outlook: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HA100743061033.aspx

PowerPoint: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint/HA100742261033.aspx

Excel: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA100738731033.aspx

The latter, for example, includes information about the expanded numbers of
rows, columns, and other limits. A summary of new Excel features covered:

* Results-oriented user interface

* More rows and columns, and other new limits

* Office themes and Excel styles

* Rich conditional formatting

* Easy formula writing

* New OLAP formulas and cube functions

* Improved sorting and filtering

* Excel table enhancements

* New look for charts

* Shared charting

* Easy-to-use PivotTables

* Quick connections to external data

* New file formats

* Better printing experience

* New ways to share your work

* Quick access to more templates

I hope this helps.
