subject: About Corel`s WP 7.0W

Don was talking about Corel's WP 7.0W:
AR>   DN> Guess I haven't found a way to avoid using the mouse for a lot of
AR>   DN> command actions. It's switching from keyboard>mouse>keyboard that
AR>   DN> slows me down.
AR>  For practically every mouse action there is a keyboard
AR>  equivalent. But there are actually a few cases (in the
AR>  Dutch version of WP) where there _should_ be a working
AR>  keyboard equivalent but isn't ...
Then I must have the Dutch version. ;=) There's no kb equivalent
that I can find for (say) Page/Line/etc. format like we had in Sh-F8
for WP 5.1. Nor for creating/editing graphics with Alt-F9. The other
day I broke a nail trying to mark some names for Index in a
document!  Those I've used more than anything.
Several years ago I marked 11,500 names in a genealogy listing using
WP 5.1+ and a programmable keyboard. The job took 7 days. I'd hate
to estimate how long it would take with WP 7.0W!!!
AR>  Use the Alt key to switch to te menu bar the follow the
AR>  highlighted letters
I've been pressing the Alt key for 2 days and nothing's happened.
