Dear Dave,
Okay, got it!
And I certainly will take your suggestion about going to the FS site and going
over whatever they have there regarding Office 2007.
Thanks a lot!
With Best Regards,

Quick Access Toolbar. You can customize it to mimic functions that might
normally involve several keystrokes in the ribbon menu. These are accessed by
pressing Alt then 1 or Alt then 2. Note that I didn't say Alt+1. QAT tool
buttons require pressing Alt, releasing, then pressing one of the numbers in
the top row. Most office applications have some pre-defined already, so give
them a try.
You should be able to learn more about the QAT if you go to the FS site in
the training page and look at some past free webinars on Office and the ribbon.

Alan,
And yes, it's hard to learn the ribbon, but not impossible. Using the QAT
gets your often-used functions readily available, once you learn how to
customize them to your needs.

Subject: Question: The Virtual Ribbon
Hello Gary,
Does the Virtual Ribbon work in JAWS 11?
And how do you turn it off and on?
Thanks for any help!
This Ribbon thing is hard to learn!
And the short Keys, although that would be the best way to go in my
opinion, but a lot to remember!

Mike,
Your best bet is to go to Training under JAWS Help and look for the
training module on the Virtual Ribbon. If you don't find it there, check for
updates and download it. You can also enter Virtual Ribbon into the search box
on the Index page of JAWS Help and get some basic information on it. The JAWS
Virtual Ribbon feature doesn't really make the ribbon work like the menus in
previous versions of MS Word, but it can make it easier to deal with.

Subject: Reading menus correctly in Office 2007.
Hi folks! I know the ribbons are introduced in Office 2007. Isn't
there a way that jaws reads the menus as in 2003? Seems like I remember
someone asking this before, but I don't have the answer here. Thanks for any
help!
