This is an absolute pain in “bottom”. I nearly said that I had made a mistake but that would be, possibly, unfair. I downloaded, via an invitation, the beta version of Office 2010.
The good side – there are many to be honest. in the main, it works. Word, Excel, Publisher and the like pretty good. Nothing much more than we already have, to be blunt. But it works, it does its job.
The Ribbon toolbar has gone, which suits me to a tee. The whole thing is a lot cleaner, better looking. But then comes the negative …
Outlook – it had to be Outlook. The main connection with the digital world. It was just so problematic. Plug-ins didn’t work (Of course they didn't !!) so we disabled them. Makes no difference. The send / receive cycle won’t complete. Googled a possible solution – that didn’t work either. Maybe I was a bit quick, but off came the beta version and, as it turned out, vainly tried to roll back to the original version of office that I had.
Again, Outlook still doesn’t work. back to Googling a result, and I’m still trying. And failing. I have even tried using an alternative E.Mail client, and that beggar doesn't want to work properly either.
I give up.
I’ll do a few chores first, and then have another go. I wish I hadn’t bothered
