Ann, Thanks for the many hot keys, PC and the others.
I don't understand your explaining how to open a text file. Perhaps you
mean to open a recent document.
You say:
While you are in the open dialog, tab once to 'type' and put in txt.
What is what you call the "open dialogue"? Perhaps we are in different
places.
I use ctrl+o and I hear "backstage, open tab".
There is a list of recently opened documents.
I tab and arrow around, and there is no word "type". Perhaps this is the
problem using the ribbon, when do I tab and when to arrow? Arrow up or
down, or left or right.
I know about using the Windows key to open a search box. If I type in a
text file name then Notepad opens that file.
I need to open a non-recent text file from inside WORD. How do I get an
edit box, into which I can type the path/filename, from inside WORD?
Thanks.

Open only works for the types in that box. I always go to documents and
press enter on the one I want.
Also. If you are using windows 7 or later, you can type the document
name in the search field that you get when you press the windows key,
and bypass 'open' altogether.
Good luck!
