Take a look at the menu bar. It has some underscored letters. Press the
Alt-key plus one of those letters -- which is highly language sensitive. The
appropriate menu should pop up. You can take it from there with the cursor
keys. And/or the Tab or Shift-Tab in dialogs. Usually the underscored letter
also works -- sometimes it doesn't though.
Note: this is for WP6.1 under Win3.1 but it _should_ work for any version of
either ... and many other Windows programs.

Pressing and releasing the Alt-key _should_ take you to the menu bar.
Repeating it _should_ take back. But see the above note. I can't test it on
Win95 this week because I won't be at the office. Nor with WP7 as I dont have
it yet.
