Pre Windows SE or IE5:

To navigate through the Start menu hierarchy, press the first key of each object's name. If, for instance, you want to access the Readme file in the My Program menu folder you would type Ctrl-Esc-P-M-R. This keystroke sequence will sequentially open, say, Start menu, Programs, My Program, Readme. 

Windows SE or IE5:

The first letter for each object continues to work, but you will need to navigate to submenus pressing Enter or using the arrow keys. The sequence in this case would be Ctrl-Esc-P-M-Enter-R.
