Microsoft Excel 2007 Environment

The tabbed Ribbon menu system allows you to navigate Excel and access its various commands. If you have used previous versions of Excel, the Ribbon system replaces the traditional menus. Above the Ribbon in the upper-left corner is the Microsoft Office button. From here, you can access important options such as New, Save, Save As, and Print. By default, the Quick Access Toolbar is pinned next to the Microsoft Office button and includes commands such as Undo and Redo.

The default worksheet tab appears at the bottom-left area of the spreadsheet.   Notice the page view commands, the zoom tool, and the horizontal scrolling bar on the bottom-right area of the spreadsheet.
