"I've used Office 2007 for a while, but at work, I have to do with Word 2002. The thing I miss the most is the style possibility, and I discovered that there was already styles, even in a bit more primitive way.
Since I often type activity reports, with Week, then day, then different things, I found quite useful the CTRL+SHIFT+S, which puts your cursor to the ""style"" field, and where i have only to type ""Title1"", ""Title2"", etc., then to hit return, and I have my selected text in the wanted style."
