Recovering a Permanently Deleted File

[Guest]

Are there keystrokes for recovering a permanently deleted file?

If I'm on the Deleted Items folder and do Tools, Recover Deleted Item, I
have a toolbar with three buttons--Select All, Recover Selected Item and an X
for Purge.

Are there a combination of keystrokes to use to recover a file?

You mean keyboard combinations to work within that dialog without a mouse?
Press the ALT button and the keys you'll need to press will be underlined.

Oh, if only that were so. If you selected the Deleted Items folder and do
Tools, Recover Deleted Items From - Deleted Items . . .

When the Recover Deleted Itmes folder opens, the toolbar only has THREE
BUTTONS--Select All, Recover Selected Items, and the BIG X to Purge Selected
Items. There is no menu on this toolbar with underlined letters to use with
the Alt key.

I currently don't have an Exchange account to test it to but you should be
able to use TAB and/or the arrow keys as well to jump through the interface.

Does that work for you?

No. Nothing seems to take you to the toolbar buttons except a mouse click. I
tried Tab, Shift + Tab, Ctrl + Tab, Shift + Ctrl + Tab, all the arrow keys,
Pg Up, Pg Dn, Spacebar. None of them works.
