This is way above my head, but have you checked Jaws help, popular 
applications and Microsoft Access?

There were these entries...
JAWS Commands for Access
Access Getting Started
Access Helpful Hints

Jen:

Last fall I took a micro computer applications course and there was a 
small
portion of the class that was on Access and I could not figure anything 
out
with Access and JAWS. I was having my reader do most of the mouse clicks
because the textbook will walk you through the steps on how to do it 
with a
mouse; however, if you are using the keyboard to access the computer 
with
JAWS there are no step by step directions. It is frustrating and I have 
been
struggling. I will learn this program if it is the last thing I do. 
Grin.
Access is going to be the death of me for sure. I just really wanted to 
find
out if I am doing something wrong or this program is as difficult as it
seems.
