MS Office Beta Notes

This is a side-blog where I intend to keep all of my notes from Beta testing new versions of Office. This will keep them all in one place for future reference. I started this with Office 2003, and am bringing it back for the 2007 version. This is not an official Microsoft site, this is just the ramblings of one IT guy.

Free Accounting Software

I saw when reading my feeds that Microsoft announced today that they are putting out Office Accounting Express Version for free download today. You can get it, or read more about it here. Looks like it integrates nicely with Office 2007, and at that price, it may make quite a dent in the market share currently held by other small business accounting software. Obviously, it doesn't do as much as the Professional version, but it might prove to be pretty useful for the home business crowd.

Junk Mail Reporting

Looks like Microsoft, finally, has released a tool to report spam that gets past the Outlook junk mail filter. Easily, this is one of the features that has been missing since Outlook 2003 first introduced us to the junk mail filter. It's nice that they're releasing it now, before Outlook 2007 comes out, it would have been nicer to have this included in 2007.
