Hi Carol
I don't think you can turn off the ribbon. It's just Microsoft making the
program look different so people will buy it, least that's my cynical
view.
I'm upgrading because I feel I have to, not because I want to leave 2003
behind. I guess we just have to go with the flow. Once it is all
configured the way I want it, I hope that will be me sorted, (smile).
A year's subscription costs £79 I think. You don't get an actual CD, you
download it and install to your device.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

OK, so what's the cost?
I really don't get on with ribbons so hope there's a way to turn them off
and still get the functionality!

Office 365 is a subscription based copy of Office 2013. With it, you
receive all major Office tools including Word, Excel, Outlook, Access,
Publisher and One Note, 1TB soon to be unlimited cloud storage from One
Drive and 60 minutes of free Skype world calling minutes. In addition,
if
you have the Home Premium edition of the product, you can install on up
to
5 Pc's and can create individual user accounts who can share your
installs
with 1TB of cloud storage space per account. Like 2010, 2013 has the
ribbon menu interface so if you are familiar with that, you should be off
to a flying start.
All the best, Ibrahim.

What's the difference between Office 365 and 2010, which currently is the
latest I have available.

Hi Steve
Martin is using it with JAWS 16 and Window-Eyes, and he seems to be
getting
on with the features he needs to access.
Kind regards,

Hi Jackie
I created some accounts using Office 365. The way it was done was the
first
account acts like an administrator and subsequent account holders were
sent
a link. They created their own accounts with their credentials e.g.
with
their own existing hotmail email IDs.
You can create a new account if you wish for yourself if you don't
already
have one.
I hope this helps.

Subject: [access-uk] Office 365 questions
I am currently preparing my computer for a makeover, that is, ensuring
everything is backed up, and downloading the latest programs I wish to
use
in readiness for installation once it is up and running.
This brings me to the dreaded fond farewell to my Office Professional
2003,
and a luke warm handshake to Office 365. Martin has already taken out a
subscription to 365 which we can apparently install on up to five
devices.
So to my questions then:
1. Martin can Email me a link which is valid for 30 days that I can use
to
go to the 365 page. But what we haven't been able to establish is
whether,
should I use that link and go to the site, do I create my own account,
or
use Martin's credentials to download a copy once my machine is up and
running? Has anyone used a family member's subscription to install it
on
their own computer?
2. In 2003, there is a great little tool I often use to either
photocopy
something, or scan in a document with my signature on it so that I can
send
it to someone as a TIF file. An example might be to scan a VAT
exemption
form which I have signed, and can return to a company as a file. I have
looked around on Martin's machine, and can't find this equivalent at all
in
365. Does it exist or, if not, would K1000 do something similar?
Thanks for any advice or suggestions. I just want to be as prepared as
I
can be once the machine is upgraded.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown
