Explore the Office Ribbon and Tabs
All Office 2007 applications (except Outlook) have a common system
of navigation called the Ribbon, which is a tabbed bar across the top of
the application window. Each tab is like a page of buttons. You click
different tabs to access different sets of buttons and features.
Figure 1-2 shows the Ribbon in Microsoft Word, with the Home tab
displayed. Within a tab, buttons are organized into groups. In Figure
1-2, the Home tab’s groups are Clipboard, Font, Paragraph, Styles, and
Editing.

setting up calculations.
