MS Office 2007 Won't Skin

December 29, 2008 8:57:31 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Using several different skins with WB 6.3 build 69, I notice that MS Office 2007 is not affected no matter what skin is used. Any tips for getting skins to work with Office 2007?

BTW, I tried a forum search using the term 'Office 2007' (without quotes) and it returns 0 results. That's strange considering I also searched on 'Office' and saw one post containing 'Office 2007's' (possessive noun) which the first search should have picked up right??

You'll have to get on MS about that.

da_zman, your title bars are skinned? I'd be quite happy with that. My Office 2007 title bars (Outlook Word, etc.) are totally unaffected by WB skins. And none of the Office apps have any per-application exceptions...

Same thing for Chrome for that matter, but I didn't expect Google Chrome to skin.

On mine the upper portion of office 2007 the part that says  what type of document skins, this is the same portion that has the little save icon and undo and redo buttons.
