Pranav,

Once the AutoFilter feature has been turned on, you can use Alt + =
DownArrow to open the list of filter options.  Sometimes I find the =
keystroke doesn't work, and I've not found a reason why or a way around =
it.  In the keyboard manager of JAWS since version 4 they have listed a =
keystroke of Control + Shift + A for the same thing, but on my PC using =
either Excel 2000 or XP it doesn't work.
