Office 2007 ignores XP Theme settings

[Waldy]

Hi there,
I have recently upgraded MS Office to 2007 and it no longer
obeys the XP display settings like 2003 did. Is it possible to make it do
this?

Sorry to say this, but no.

Sorry to say this, but no.

OK Thanks. It begs the question however, why Microsoft created a product
that is not compatible with their own operation system?

Office 2007 was designed to work with Windows Vista, not an 8 year ol
operating system.

Milly sneered and posted this crass reply...

Well I think they should have done, considering that Vista will not run (to
a useable standard) on 90% of the hardware out there.

Then you need to discuss your thoughts with Microsoft. Milly was not being
crass. She stated a fact and the fact that you do not agree with Microsoft's
decision doesn't me you get to be rude.
