Default Another great example of how Word 2007 "brings commands closer to the surface"

Commands on the QAT have automatic accelerators. Alt+1 accesses the first
command, Alt+2 accesses the next, and so on.

To view them, press the Alt key and the accelerators will display in the
KeyTips (small screen tips that display above the commands.)

Again at the moment I don't have 2007 in front of me, but once you add the
command or the group to the TAC, I'll bet they're only accessible via the
mouse, right? Because how could the TAC have accellerator keys accessible
by Alt+Key combinations, given that the Ribbon has monopolized them all?

Along with what Doug told you, you can also add any command from the

Ribbon,
including entire groups, to the QAT. Just right-click the command and

click
Add to Quick Access Toolbar. If you want to add an entire group,

right-click
the group name. To remove them from the QAT, right-click the command and
click Remove from Quick Access Toolbar.

If you find you need to access a dialog box frequently then just add
it
to
your Quick Access Toolbar.

Can ha actually be done? I've experimented much more with Excel 2007
than Office 2007, but in Excel the only customization I could figure
out was to add preselected commands, of which there were only about
half a dozen.
