You can always hide the ribbon, Ctrl+F1 and bring it back the same way. Or
double click on a ribbon tab. Then click on the tab you want to see
temporarily then click on the tab to hide the ribbon again. Just double
click on a tab to bring the ribbon back.

I forgot to mention that I'm almost blind (not really, but it seems like
it!) and my res is set to 800 x 600 (as low as it'll go!).

By comparison, in Excel 2002 I get 25 rows by 11.6 columns with only the
standard and formatting toolbars displayed.

1) Home/Styles/Conditonal Formatting
2) Pressing X on the Excel title bar closes workbooks one by one and
then when all workbooks are closed, closes Excel.
3) Suggest you get the cross reference from MS that shows you how to
locate Excel 2003 things in Excel 2007 - Also available for Word,
PowerPoint, Outlook.
Try searching for "office command reference" at MS
