2007 version has so many good things that it is not wise to giveup just to
avoid the learning curve...

You may try free add-in http://downloads.zdnet.com/abstract.aspx?docid=285017.

I would suggest that you accept the new ribbon and work with it. You can
quickly add your favourite icons to quick access toolbar.

Also if you working in a non-commercial environment then try ASAP utilities

I absolutely hate this new "RIBBON" in Excel '07. I am (or was) an
extremely proficient and speedy user of Excel. This RIBBON is horrible and I
don't have the time or interest in learning to navigate around this RIBBON.
I understand from the help file there is no way to remove the ribbon or
display in a "Classic" format. Is there an easy way to "CONVERT BACK" to
my previous version of Excel?
