Issues that cause a minor loss of fidelity

Issue

Solution

This workbook contains a customized Quick Access Toolbar and/or custom user interface parts that are not supported in earlier versions of Excel. These custom features will not be available in earlier versions of Excel.

What it means    Because the ribbon user interface in Excel 2007 and later is very different from the menus and toolbars in Excel 97-2003, any Quick Access Toolbar customizations that were made in Excel 2007 and later are not available in Excel 97-2003.

What to do    In Excel 97-2003, you can add similar custom commands to toolbars and menus.
