Wendy et al, I have been the voice for ribbon keyboard shortcuts for the last six months to be reinstated on the beta list and I will not stop till they are. It is unfortunate that the single and dual key combinations that allowed us to navigate had to be removed. I will persavere I promise.

Your answer is very disappointing, though. I much prefer keyboard shortcuts to reaching for the mouse or trackpad. This might be a deal-breaker for me. I'll have to think about it. Quite happy with v7.5, so have no qualms about continuing to use it for now - and my Deluxe customer number for v8 just arrived a few moments ago, so I have a choice to make. I hope there is a plan to restore them (albeit with new key combinations that fit the new ribbon control) in the near future. Would it help if I put in a suggestion through the proper channels?
