Other new features
Other new features in Excel 2007 worth noting are:
- Trust Center: Protecting yourself from malicious macros is a bit easier with Excel 2007. For example, you can disable all macros, except those in workbooks that are stored in trusted locations on your computer.
- PDF add-in: You can create an industry-standard Adobe PDF file directly from Excel using an add-in available from Microsoft. Search Excel’s Help system for “PDF” to learn more.
- Improved zooming: Use the Zoom control or Zoom slider on the right side of the status bar to quickly zoom in or zoom out on your worksheet.
- More control over the status bar: You can now control the type of information that appears in the status bar.
- Color Schemes: Change the appearance of Excel by applying one of three color schemes that ship with Excel (Blue, Silver, or Black).
- Resizable formula bar: When editing lengthy formulas, you can increase the height of the formula bar so that it doesn’t obscure your worksheet. Just click and drag on the bottom border of the formula bar.
- Lots of new templates: Why reinvent the wheel? Choose Office Button?New, and you can choose from a variety of templates. One of them may be exactly (or at least close) to what you need.
