Where's my Office 2003 option in Office 2007

Working in IT support field will expose you to different and very unusual issues to work on or to troubleshoot.

One of the user just called in and asked "Where to I find Tools command in Office 2007 which used to be there in Office 2003. I need to make a switch board and need help."

I could have asked him a few more clarification questions and answered his request, but then the old proverb "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime" crossed my mind.

I told him to give me sometime and check his email inbox. I quickly composed an email with the below link and sent it to him.

When you follow the above link you will be presented with two options "Find Commands in Office 2010 | Office 2007". Select the version of Office in which you want to find the desired command and then select the specific product under "Interactive guides for Office 2010 | 2007".

That's it!
