Shortcut keys and access keys are different. Access keys are preceded by
typing Alt. For example, open MS Word, press Alt F (these should be
pressed one after the other and not together). F is the access key for
the File menu. In Microsoft Word, press Ctrl + S, S is the shortcut key
for save (using the access keys, Alt F Alt S accomplishes the same
thing; in this case, for save, the access and shortcut keys are the
same).

Cheers,

Sean
