Hi, Andrew.
There are two parts to the answer here. If you're in a Microsoft
Office program, you can access tool bars by first hitting the alt key
to activate the menu bar, then hitting ctrl-tab to the first active
toolbar. Use the arrow keys to navigate that tool bar, or ctrl-tab
to get to the next one. Most of what is found on the tool bar can be
accessed through other means in Office programs, but some features
are only available via the tool bar.
In other programs, you will need to use the JAWS cursor. You may
need to try using the Auto Label Graphics feature to see if the
buttons can be labeled easily. the contents of the tool bar will
vary from program to program. Again, often you will not need to
access it, but sometimes it is indispensable.
I see that you are being advised to hit alt-t to get to the
toolbar. I know of no program where this happens. In many programs,
alt-t brings up the tools menu for the program. this happens when
there is a tools menu on the menu bar, as is the case in Word, Excel,
Internet Explorer, Juice and many other programs. the tools menu is
not the tool bar. Follow the instructions I gave above to really get
to the tool bars.
