Hello Tasha,

Turn tracking on by using CTRL+shift+E.  You can use Windows key with
semicolon in Word 2010 to bring up a virtual window with options for viewing
comments, footnotes, endnotes or revisions.  If you press enter key on the
Revisions option, you will get a list of hyperlinks, and pressing enter key
on any of the hyperlinks will put focus on the specific revision.  You can
then use the application key and the accept and reject revision choices will
be present.  

If you use the Accept and Reject options frequently, you might want to
consider setting those options to hotkeys.  The following steps can be
followed to set a hotkey for the "accept and move to next" action found on
the lower part of the ribbon under the review tab.  

1.  Press Alt followed by R followed by A to move focus to the Accept and
Move to Next option.
2.  Press the Application key or Shift+f10.  (right click with the mouse).
3.  Use up arrow key a couple times and press enter key on the "Customize
the Ribbon" menu item.
4.  Use tab key a couple of times to a list of commands and make sure that
the selected command is "Accept and Move to Next."
5.  Use tab key one more time to move to the Customize button and use the
spacebar.
6.  In the category list make sure you select the Review option.  Press R in
the list of categories until that option is selected.
7.  Use tab key to the Commands list box.  
8.  The first three options in the list have to do with accepting changes.
Use up or down arrow key to select the one you want to use with a hotkey.  
9.  Use tab key one time to find out if there is a current key combination
applied to the command.  If not, use tab key again to the edit box for the
new hotkey.
10. Type in the hotkey combination.  You might consider using
Alt+CTRL+Shift+A.  Be sure to actually use the hotkey when entering what you
want to use in the edit box.  In other words, hold down all three modifier
keys, press A and then release all keys.  
11.  Use tab key one more time and choose if you want to use this key
combination in the normal template so it will be available in all new
documents based on the normal template.  Arrow down one time in the Save In
combo box if you want your changes to only be for the current document.
12.  Use tab key and find the Assign button.  Use spacebar on that button.
The new hotkey combination should appear in the list of currently assigned
keys.  I have found that it sometimes takes a few seconds before showing in
the list.    
13.  Use tab key to the Close button and use spacebar.  
14.  Use tab key to the OK button and use spacebar.

Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] track changes

Hi, In Word 2003, I used to be able to right click on an area of a document
where there are track changes, and choose reject or accept. I can't seem to
be able to do this now, using jaws 12 and 13 and office 2010. The option
does not show up in the menu. Any ideas?
