I've never liked the flat button style introduced with Office 97 & then adopted by M$ ever since. I really dislike having the delay involved with recognition & response time when it it come to locating the button hotspot.
Anyone know if it's possible for force Win 98 & WinXP to use Win95 style raised buttons?
Similarly, I loathe the 'cartoon/modern art' style of WinXP. Many are too similar to readily distinguish from each other, or the detail becomes a blurry smudge at high resolutions
Anyway for force it to use Win95/98 style icons?
Would this extend to programs too? Or can I substitute an Office 95 .DLL into Office 97?
Perhaps by replacing a .DLL with one from an earlier OS, or changing a registry reference to another .DLL?
