Remarks

Note

An access key is a combination of the Alt key and one or more alphanumeric keys used to activate an associated control in an app that supports access keys (such as Word).

Key tips are badges displayed next to controls that support access keys when the user presses the Alt key. Each key tip contains the alphanumeric keys that activate the associated control.

The following image shows the Home tab of Word with access keys activated (note the support for both numbers and multiple keystrokes).
