I feel the exact same way. I think ribbons are evil and unnecessary.
Why create layers of hidden menus when the menu bar used to show all
that could be done, and which was so much more accessible?
I will avoid them till I can no longer. Hopefully, by then I will be
able to use my voice to get done what I need, if I live that long.

I hope I won't get in trouble for possibly making this more of a thank

that, for example, in the case of ribbons, I appreciated David Bales'
suggestions and they worked beautifully. I like that this group
presents many approaches to the handling of apps and various
work-arounds using Jaws. We're all learning, and for those of us who
don't always understand new apps or layouts I appreciate help from those
who can present an easier or, to me, familiar way of reaching my goals.
I wouldn't mind learning more about ribbons and maybe there's a tutorial
to explain them. But they don't make sense to me and I can't picture
their layout or how to find their menus. Someone suggested turning the
virtual ribbon feature off in Jaws and I know many others use it. I'd
be glad to hear an explanation of what exactly they are and how to find
the menus you need. I am using older email programs for this very
reason--ribbons don't make sense. So if there's a tutorial that
explains them thoroughly I would check one out if anyone knows of one.
But in the meantime I'm so relieved there are still other ways to avoid
them till I learn more.
