In the past, most office users would have to search through menus to find the right tool for the job. But in 2007, Microsoft Office included a feature called “old menus.” This feature allowed users to easily access common tools and features from different parts of the Office interface without having to search through menus. The old menus were a great way to keep office users organized and on their toes. They made it easy for you to find what you needed without having to search through a long list of options. If you’re looking for a way to bring back the old menus in Office 2007, there are a few ways you can do it. One way is to create an alias for each tool you use most often. This will make it easier for you to remember which tool you need when you need it, and it will also make it easier for other office users to find your tools if they need them too. Another way to bring back the old menus is by using macros. Macros are special files that contain instructions that can be run automatically when someone opens an Office document. These files can help you keep your office environment organized and easy-to-use while still providing some basic functionality. There are many ways that you can use these techniques to bring back the old menus in Office 2007, but they all work best when used together.

When the “pointy-haired bosses” require deadlines to be met you don’t have time to learn where everything is. This is where UBitMenu comes in, it places the classic 2003 menu in as a new ribbon.
It will add the Classic Menu to Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007. Not only will it allow you to easily navigate through documents, it also adds elements of 2007’s extra functionality. For example in this Excel shot you can see there is the new 2007 means to save the document.

While in the UBitMenu you can still access the Mini Formatting Toolbar which is a new feature in Office 2007. If you are annoyed by this feature check out The Geek’s article on how to disable it.
