At work I've just had an upgrade to Office 2003. The toolbars and menus are
no longer in line with the personalised settings as set by my control panel.

My display settings had been set up specially to prevent me getting
eyestrain and since the upgrade, with these setting not being followed, I am
getting quite severe eyestrain again.

Is there any way I can get Office 2003 work with my personalised display
settings? My IT colleagues are suggesting this may not be possible.

From the sound of it, the upgrade was done but previous settings were not
copied over. Office has a tool to export its settings for everything which
you only need to reload into the new machine.

If you have any machine with such settings, you can export it to a flash
drive and then import it back to this new problematic machine.

The settings are working in everything else that runs on windows however,
just not the MS Office Suite (Except MS Access which was not upgraded). Part
of the issue is that the toolbars are now fading vertically from grey to
almost white.
