Starting PowerPoint 2007 is the same as the previous versions that is go down to the start menu and browse through All Programs > Microsoft Office and select Microsoft PowerPoint 2007
If you’ve used this program before you can choose the larger icon in the start menu the program starts as before, but that the user interface is quite different in the past there was just a menu bar at the top of the document, this is now replaced with the area called Ribbon.
The Ribbon is the context sensitive tool bar it changes depending on what you are doing and the tools and options you might need. The Ribbon contains many the other options ever accessed in previous versions. The following video shows you a detailed interface of PowerPoint 2007 starting from the Ribbon.
