Thanks Ann,
I'm making headwaywith WORD 2013.
Your suggestion to get to save-as by using the old:
alt+F then a
only gets me to the save-as tab. Inow know that I have to select a
button for the folder and that brings up the edit box.
The F12 gets me directly into the edit box where I can type
thepath/fileName.
I still don't know how to open a file from inside WORD. The ctrl+o gets
me the open tab. Only recent documents are shown.
I need an edit box to type the path/file so I can open a text file from
within WORD.
Existing WORD files can be opened by selecting them from the directory tree.
The large WORD hot keys file is a problem, maybe the "protected view".
I used F12 to save it as a RTF and text file. It will take time to go
through it.
Thanks again.

If you remember the commands from Word 2003, you can use most of
them. But you can't open a menu and select one. So to get to the
format paragraph dialog, you have to type alt-o, then p. To get to
'change case', it's alt-o, then e. Save-as is alt-f, then a, or f12.
Good luck! the transition is a stinker, but eventually it's manageable.

You can change the font by pressing Alt-O-F or Shift Control-F or, best
of all, Control D, which always has been delete - go figure. I learned
the second and third commands from listers. I too jumped from 2003 to
2013. Actually, I had a brief stint with 2010, which is about the
same as
2013.
Bye for now,

Subject: Just switched to WORD 2013, any more hot keys suggestions?
Hello,
I just switched from WORD 2003 to 2013. The menu bar has been changed to
a ribbon menu for some years now. These ribbons are proving to be an
initial hurdle. I'm tabbing and arrowing in a fruitless search for
what I
want.
When the ribbons first came out, Ihad heard that you could use some of
the old Menu Bar hot keys, but that isn't exactly true.
Alt+F doesn't bring up the old File menu.
Some of you provided the hot keys for changing the font.
How do I do a "save as"? That was in the File menu.
If I do a "alt+f a" I get a save as tab. There is no edit field.
How do I open a file? The ctrl+o gives me the open tab and recently
opened documents.
There is no edit field to type in the drive, path file-name that I used
to do.
I got started by using the tree to select an existing WORD document It
was opened by WORD. I could then open it as a recent document.
I just found the JAWS training, as DAISY books. These can be downloaded
so I downloaded the VirtualRibbonMenus.exe. It is an executable file.
How do I get it into a DAISY book format to transfer to my DAISY player?
Thanks for any help.
Peter T.
