Hi,

If you go to the ribbon, and press Tab or shift+Tab to the Quick Access toolbar, you will hear JAWS telling you of the menu item, followed by the shortcut keys, and then the Alt+Number. For example, if you have on your quick access the Font... as the fourth item, you can easily access it by Alt+4. It only takes an alt key plus the position of the function you wish to access.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Quick Access Toolbar Word 2007


   Hi All,

I have a couple of questions about working with the Quick Access Toolbar in
Word 2007 using JAWS and XP Home with SP3 and hope maybe someone can help
make my life a little easier.


The textbook I have indicates that at least the default items in the quick
access toolbar are numbered.  JAWS 10 here doesn't speak any numbers and I
have to arrow to the items and hit enter to select what I want in the quick
access toolbar.  I hit ALT and up arrow to get to it.


I successfully added paste special to the quick access toolbar and was
wondering if additions are supposed to be numbered so I could just press 4
or whatever  from within the quick access tool bar instead of arrowing to
press special since I use the command a lot?


The textbook was written with JAWS 10 in mind and if JAWS is supposed to
speak numbers in the quick access toolbar, how do I go about getting it to
do it?  I might want to add other items, but don't want to have to re-do
everything.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Margaret
