Dear Keith, It was not a big deal finding that link for you. Sorry it didn't help as expected. If you are looking at completely using the keyboard to access all functions of the menu in the ribbon, you can, like mentioned earlier, use all the keyboard shortcut keys as in Microsoft Office 2003. They still work my friend. I haded the concept of the ribbons ever since they were introduced and had a good chance to work with them when I was sighted, never liked them back then too. With JAWS giving you the virtual ribbons option it has made it easier for me to adapt to them. Perhaps you can google keyboard shortcut keys for Microsoft word 2003 and you might just get what you need. The internet has all the resources but it's mostly us that either can't search/ look in the right places to get what we want. Don't assume that the sighted world is any better at this, in fact a blind computer user can kick their ass anyday with basic stuff like opening a folder in a drive faster than they can say Merry Christmas. Speaking of Christmas hope Santa helps us poor souls by making all the online shopping websites accessible. Merry Christmas to all the avid listers on this group!

I see under "line spacing" it shows "single line spacing, Control+1" etc, and I am very familiar with these keys, but I was really looking for a list that would contain the ribbon shortcuts, such as Alt+HK for line spacing. By the way, I should have said in my post: "many others, like me", rather than "I, like many others"! Simply a case of not properly checking what I'd written before sending!

Most of the keyboard shortcut keys for word and all other Microsoft Office applications are still the same as in Office 2003. If you still remember them you can use them with 2010 too. Below is a link to a site that will help you better in case you need a refresher.

I am now retired, and wish to use Word and the like for fairly simple tasks. I don't wish to access the ribbon in the Jaws configuration. What I would like, please, is a complete list of Word 2010 ribbon hotkeys (such as Alt+HK for line spacing). I know I could go right through all the myriad ribbon options and make a note of the hotkeys, but I was wondering if anyone had such a list they could either let me have, or knew where I could find one. Any help would be very much appreciated.
