Access 2007 keyboard support

[Guest]

Okay, is it just me or is the new version totally hostile to those of us who
use the keyboard for creating objects, navigating the windows etc? There is
NO way to do the equivalent of:

ALT -> I -> T down arrow, enter to create a new table

I do NOT want to have to constantly reach for the mouse!

Try ALT - C - TD

That will create a new table in Design View.

To start a new table in Datasheet View use:

ALT - C - TN

When you use the ALT key you'll see all the KeyTips on the Ribbon.
