the quick access toolbar is a convenient
place to add your favorite commands
because they will always stay visible no
matter where you are on the ribbon but
there's another reason to use it that
not everyone knows about every command
on the quick access toolbar gets its own
keyboard shortcut putting them literally
at your fingertips to get the most out
of a shortcut you should first add one
or more commands that you use frequently
and you can add any commands that are on
the ribbon I'm going to open the sort
and filter menu then right-click the
sort A to Z option and select add to
quick access toolbar
and you can see that it's added our
command here
now the shortcut is going to be alt
followed by a number and when you press
the Alt key you can actually see the
number associated with each command
since the sort command is number six the
shortcut is alt six
and that will sort based on whichever
column we have selected in this case the
last name we can test this again with
the state column press alt six
and it's sorts by state so try adding
some of your favorite commands to the
quick access toolbar to take advantage
of these shortcuts
