Office Tab

Office Tab is an add-in for Microsoft Office designed to provide users with the possibility to easily edit multiple files in the same window, in a tabbed interface.

The add-in can be used with all Office 2003 and later versions, and allows users to enjoy a tabbed interface in Word, Excel and PowerPoint, something that Microsoft's application does not offer by default.

Courtesy of the tabbed interface that this add-in provides, Microsoft Office users can open multiple documents simultaneously in the same application window, thus enjoying improved management capabilities.

The tabbed interface provides users with the possibility to switch between documents seamlessly, while also allowing them to save and close multiple documents instantly, with a single mouse click, courtesy of the “Save All” and “Close All” options in the context menu.

Further document management features are available courtesy of support for file groups. Users can add their documents to groups, and can open, save and close all files in a group at once.

The tool comes with support for re-ordering tabs, so as to deliver increased efficiency. Switching between tabs can be done either by clicking on them or with the help of hotkeys.

Users can change the colors of their tabs and are provided with a series of tab styles to choose from. Moreover, they can customize their experience by changing the name and font of each tab to better suit their needs.

The add-in makes the renaming of files a simple operation, as it eliminates the need to use the Save As option. The rename function is conveniently displayed in the context menu for quick access.

The add-in can display the full name of a document, something that Office might not do when the name is too long. However, users can also set tabs to feature a given length or to automatically adapt to the length of the document's name.

All in all, Office Tab is an easy-to-use, straightforward tool that allows Microsoft Office users to open multiple documents in the same window and to manage all of them effortlessly. It can significantly increase efficiency and does not require high computer skills to be used.
