The following MyAnswers solution 2445 is now available:

In Windows when I want to edit a text field in Microsoft Access I press Shift+F2 to display the text in a separate windows. On the MacBook Air running OS X Mavericks and running Office 2013 in a virtual machine this doesn't work. What keys do I press to show the text in the separate window to edit. Editing a multiline text field in the raw table layout doesn't work. Where you think you're editing isn't where the correction is done. It is out by a number of characters so it is impossible to edit.
