Brad,
I didn't realize I had replied to this thread. Yes I agree, I find
the meny on the Mac version of Word just fine. I hope to spend some time
working on this and seeing what works for me. Ultimately I will
translate some documents to braille. Using styles will make this easier.

On windows, the ribbon is very accessible. There are keyboard shortcuts, called
Key Tips, that are very accessible. These Key Tips do not exist on a Mac, and
I find the ribbon to be worthless when using MS office on a Mac.
Thank God the menu bar is always there on a Mac. You can access everything in
the ribbon through the menu bar.

When the ribbon first came to Word, I never took to it thus my use of Word
was mininal. Now I will be right at home with Word on the Mac.

Another source of persistent “beeping” on Macs running the Big Sur or
Monterrey operating systems, is an alert that lets VoiceOver users know that
there is a notification or system dialog present on the screen.
This alert can be disabled as follows:
1. Open VoiceOver Utility using VO + F8.
2. Select Verbosity, from the Categories table, or just press CMD + NumRow 2.
3. Select the Announcements tab, and then navigate to the item labeled, "Play
Tone When system dialogs are displayed”.
4. Open the Pop-Up button, and select Do Nothing, if you wish to eliminate the
audible alert.

Don’t think you hold the control key while pressing the power button three
