I'm truly sorry you have been frustrated with the Office 2007 UI. I've been using their 'roadmap to the kitchen' <reposted again http://tinyurl.com/y85r6y for your convenience> and it has helped me immensely. Their roadmap tells me what drawers to look in for what I need.
How long have you been using Word 2007?

My analogy for Word 2007 is that it's like having someone come in and clean
your kitchen, and they took it upon themselves to rearrange all the
cupboards. Everything looks great, but nothing is where you put it. So, when
you need the tablespoon, or a saucepan, you have to open every single drawer
and cabinet to find it. You know it's there, but you don't know where it is
anymore. It's highly frustrating.
