Typing in text

Typing in text is simple and straightforward. The Organizer’s keyboard layout is just like the keyboard on a typewriter or computer.

Letters (lower-case and upper-case)

Any of the standard letters (A to Z) can be entered by pressing the corresponding key. All letters will normally appear in lower case. Hold down either of the [ ] keys while pressing letter key(s) to enter upper-case letters. [2nd] [ ] functions like a “Caps lock” key on a typewriter or computer. Once pressed, the symbol CAPS will appear in the display. Any letters typed while the Organizer is in CAPS mode will appear in upper case. To switch back to lower- case mode, simply press [2nd] [ ] again. To enter lower-case letters while in CAPS mode, hold down [ ] while pressing a letter key.

Numbers

Numbers are entered using the numeric keypad located to the right of the display. The numbers are entered regardless of whether CAPS mode is on or off.

Symbols

The symbols that appear in white above certain keys can be entered directly from the keyboard. Holding down [ ] while pressing the appropriate key will allow you to enter these symbols. 2 Colons can be entered by holding down [ ] and pressing the [ • ] key. In addition, a large number of special symbols are available by pressing [SMBL] (see p.71)

Moving around the display

You can move the cursor around the display with the cursor keys [ ] , [ ] , [ ] and [ ]. In addition, you can hold any cursor key down for continuous rapid movement.

The following convenient keyboard shortcuts are also available in Edit mode:

[2nd] [ ] Moves the cursor to the end of the line.

[2nd] [

] Moves the cursor to the beginning

 

of the line.

[2nd] [ ] Moves the cursor to the first line of a field.
