Microsoft Office 2007's successor has been creating a buzz on the web since last two days. A beta tester from Microsoft enthusiast Russian site wzor.net has leaked the Office 14 application screenshots. Earlier, Microsoft had said the server components of this Office 14 suite were given out for beta testing.

Dubbed as Office 14 (version number or code name), Microsoft Office's recent version Office 2007 was codenamed as Office 12. Anyone might wonder why Microsoft skipped number 13 for their Office productivity suite. Superstitious, may be?

The list of applications included in Office 14 suite are: Word 14, Excel 14, Powerpoint 14, Outlook 14, Access 14, InfoPath Designer 14, InfoPath Filler 14, Publisher 14, Groove 14, InterConnect 14, SharePoint Designer 14, OneNote 14, Visio 14 and Project 14.

Microsoft refused to comment on the screenshots and availability of the Office 14. However, the Russian site wzor.net mentioned beta version of Office 14 might come out in May and its final version would be released by year end.
