Re: [JAWS-Users] backstage view
Most times, when you press the Alt + F key combination, nothing really happens, you will have to arrow down to start seeing the items under the f ile menu, but you should be able to arrow straight on down to the Options item, and open this by pressing enter. In some instances, I suppose you might have to use the Tab key to get to the Options. Do you need instructions again on disabling the Back Stage view? Let me know, and I can resend them.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Backstage view in Word 2013
The hardest of the Microsoft big three to clean up seems to be Access. As we use to say, "WYSIWYG." The suggestions presented here do a nice job of cleaning up the Excel and Word interfaces, saving time and aggravation. Access has always required one or two extra steps anyway.
