PowerPoint supports multiple file formats including images (.jpg, .gif) and audio files (.wav). All these formats can be inserted into slides, making 'All of the above' the correct choice.

During a slide presentation, pressing Tab cycles through hyperlinks sequentially. This allows keyboard navigation between interactive elements without using the mouse.

Shift + click allows you to select multiple adjacent slides in PowerPoint (click first slide, hold Shift, click last slide). This selects all slides in between, useful for batch operations.

Ctrl+1 opens the Format Cells dialog box in Excel, which provides comprehensive formatting options including borders, alignment, fonts, and number formats.

The .xls extension is the traditional file format for Microsoft Excel workbooks, used in Excel 97-2003. While modern Excel uses .xlsx as the default format (introduced in Excel 2007), .xls files are still widely recognized and can be opened in current Excel versions with compatibility mode. Options A (.exe), B (.doc), and C (.xlf) are incorrect - .exe is for executable programs, .doc for Word documents, and .xlf for translation interchange files.

The View menu in MS Office applications is typically accessed using Alt+V (not V for Paste, which is Ctrl+V). Alt+W is for the Window menu in some versions. F4 has different functions (repeat last action or close window depending on context). None of the listed shortcuts directly open the View menu.

F7 is the universal keyboard shortcut for Spell Check across all Microsoft Office applications including MS Access. F2 is for editing cell contents, F3 is for Find Next (or Find in some apps), and Alt+F7 has no standard spell check function.

Alt+F4 is the standard Windows shortcut to close the active application. For closing just the current database window in MS Access (without exiting the application), Ctrl+W or Ctrl+F4 might also work, but Alt+F4 is the most direct and universally recognized close command.

Ctrl+W is the standard keyboard shortcut to close the current Datasheet view in MS Access. This works similarly to closing documents in other Windows applications. Ctrl+C is for copying, Ctrl+O is for opening, and Alt+F4 closes the entire application.

Ctrl+I is the universal keyboard shortcut for applying italic formatting to selected text in most applications including Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The other options either do nothing or perform different functions - Alt+I has no default action, Ctrl+C is for copying, and Alt+C has no standard formatting purpose.

Shift+Delete is the Windows keyboard shortcut that permanently deletes selected files or items without sending them to the Recycle Bin. Regular Delete moves items to the Recycle Bin where they can be recovered, while Ctrl+Delete and Alt+Delete have no standard file deletion function in Windows Explorer.

Ctrl+A is the universal 'Select All' shortcut across Windows applications and web browsers. It instantly selects the entire document or all text in the current text field. Alt+A and Shift+A have no standard selection function, while Shift+Right Arrow only selects text character by character, not everything at once.

Ctrl+D opens the Font dialog box in Microsoft Word, giving access to all font formatting options. This shortcut provides quick access to font family, size, style, color, and effects. The other options - Ctrl+B (bold), Ctrl+F (find), and Ctrl+J (justify) - perform different formatting functions and do not open the Font dialog.
