Keyboard Support

People who become proficient with software often look for (or create!) shortcuts to help them cut down on wasted keystrokes and mouse clicks when they do routine tasks. The 2007 Microsoft Office system includes a number of keyboard features that will make even the most ardent shortcut key lover happy. Three different levels of keyboard support are available:

  • KeyTips enable you to toggle on the display of keystrokes you can press to navigate the user interface using the keyboard.

  • Keyboard shortcuts in the 2007 release work exactly the same way they worked in Office 2003 (see Table 2-1).
