Word 2003
9 Common office 2003 Clipboard: The clipboard has been improved. It can now hold up to 24
clips and you’ll see part of the copied data, so it’s easier to easily identify them.
9 Hyperlinks: Instead of just clicking on a hyperlink, you need to hold down the Ctrl key and click.
This also applies to links within a document, such as in a Word table of contents.
9 Document Recovery: The Recovery feature has been improved, and you get the option to save the
current file at the time an application stops responding, so you don’t lose your work.
9 Footnotes etc.: Several options, including footnotes, have moved to the Reference menu, which is
accessed from the Insert menu. The Reference menu contains Footnotes, Caption, Cross-reference,
Index and Tables.
Excel 2003
9 Macro Security: A ‘Very High’ macro security option has been added, under Tools > Macro >
Security.
Power Point: 2003
9 Package for CD: The Pack and Go menu option has been replaced by Package for CD, (on the
File menu). It creates a CD that will run on a computer without Powerpoint, as it includes the
Powerpoint Viewer.
9 Thumbnails of slides in normal view: When you work in normal view on the Slides tab,
thumbnail-sized images of your slides appear, so you can easily change the order of your slides
without going to Slide Sorter view.

Office 2003
