Menu Access Keys
The standard keyboard interface for menus can be enhanced by adding access
keys (mnemonics) to menu items. An access key is an underlined letter in the text
of a menu item. When a menu is active, the user can select a menu item by
pressing the key that corresponds to the item's underlined letter. The user makes
the menu bar active by pressing the ALT key to highlight the first item on the menu bar. A menu is active when it is
displayed.
To create an access key for a menu item, precede any character in the item's
text string with an ampersand. For example, the text string "&Move" causes
Windows to underline the letter "M".
