Posted: 11:40 - 21 Aug 2009 Post subject: What the hell is this shit! Microsoft Office |
|
|
The person who designed the newest installation of word should be shot in the fucking face! If I ever meet him I'm gonna scream so hard in his fucking ears that his eardrums turn to mush!
Why are there so many fucking buttons?!?!?! NOTHING is easy to do. This is about as user friendly as making fire with 2 sticks.
It's taking me literally 45 minutes to make a few tiny changes to a legal document. In the end I just get there by luck..
Anyone else hate this piece of shit programme as with the same level of passion as me?
Thank FUCK that Mac didn't get the same version. I'm off to nuke the Microsoft HQ, be back in an hour |

Suggest if you can't get on with it (I've not heard a good thing about the usability of the new version) you download and try OpenOffice.
It's free, yes I'll say that again, it's free.
Plus it supports all the MS files, can output direct to pdf and has lots of extensions and templates you can add.
Plus if you ever feel the need there's a portable version you can put on a USB drive to carry around with you from PC to PC.
The openoffice files can't be opened by MS apps (as far as I've found, until MS move the goalposts). Therefore a little more secure and private.

Excel is the worst, stupid bloody 'tabs' full of pointless buttons instead of the drop down menus and normal toolbar that was just fine for years.
Makes everything take longer, just trying to find a simple button that's now hidden under some obscure tab.
And don't get me started on pivot tables... ____________________ CBR125|||GSXR400|||CBR400|||CBR400|||CB250RS|||GSXR750|||CB250RS

Remember that Open office can read and write word documents but word can't read open office documents. So if you're sending one to someone who is using word, save it as a .doc not an .odt.
In fact, open office can often open word documents that word can't because they are "corrupted". ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

I don't think I can take ranting about this all over again, it consumes too much of my time as it is! So here's the last thread posted instead...

Can't view the video unless you download microbsofts own media player.
Can't say as that comes as much of a surprise. Well, video can just stay unwatched, I'm not downloading a new media player just to watch an advert. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen.
