Get up and running with PowerPoint 2007

I was speaking this afternoon with an organization that is going through a challenge that many are facing today - converting from PowerPoint 2003 to 2007. The technical conversion is easy. Simply install the new version. The challenge comes when the user opens the application for the first time and is greeted with a user interface that looks nothing like what they are familiar with. So here are two references that can help. First, a new article by Preston Gralla for Computerworld gives good advice on getting familiar with the interface quickly. It is at: http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9063119&pageNumber=1 . Second is a listing of where every command in PowerPoint 2003 is now found in 2007. Find it at: http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9061638 .

Good luck with the conversion!
