Now: Wrapped with a Ribbon

The new Ribbon toolbar in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access, as well as the message composition window of Outlook arranges major functions within a graphical, tabbed interface atop the screen. Some tabs remain hidden until the software senses that you may need them. For instance, a Picture Tools Format tab appears when you click on a picture.
