Office 2007 Ultimate on a IBM Thinkpad X41t

in Word 2007, the scroll button, part of the trackdot and buttons, wont scroll at all

That seems like a pretty shitty bug to have made it into the release version. How hard is it to make sure that your program is compatable with something so general? It also doesn't scroll using the scroll area on my dell touchpad.

and i still havent found a fix

5/2/2007 2:58:07 PM

my fix is: I use a bluetooth mouse anyways

not really a fix, but ah well.

Scrolls fine on my Sony Vaio using the touchpad scroll function. Are you using legit versions of Office?

I found a problem... Put an equation in a table row such that the equation breaks across pages. the first row of the equation will be on the first page and the entire equation will be on the second.

Another: Tables ibreaking across columns (page columns) don't work correctly.

^ Yeah there seems to be a bunch of bugs related to tables

And yeah I'm using a legitimate version, one was 59.95 at the bookstore and the other was free from an MS rep, so why bother stealing it right? Aficionado's version is also legitimate.

I couldn't get powerpoint to work. For some stupid reason, it displayed text above the text box - like:

here's where the text shows up
here's where i want the text

I love the ribbon.

^ Had similar issues with text placement in Excel graphs. For some reason, the longer y axis title I typed, the further IN to the graph it would place it. It usually ended up placing the y axis title inside the graph itself. It was kind of odd.

One bug I've had is that individual letters in word and powerpoint will bunch together.

If I save it and reload office, the text goes back to normal.

bump per user request.
