Description

Numeric keypad

The numeric keypad area contains the keys found on a typical calculator.

area

Use this area to type numbers or to perform mathematical calculations

 

 

 

 

 

such as addition and subtraction. Note the following:

 

 

 

 

 

To activate the numeric keypad, press the Num Lock key, which causes

 

 

 

 

 

 

the Num Lock light to come on and remain on until the numeric keypad

 

 

 

 

 

 

is deactivated.

 

 

 

 

 

To deactivate the Num Lock key, press the Num Lock key again, which

 

 

 

 

 

 

causes the Num Lock light to go off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Navigation keys

The Left/Right/Up/Down arrows are devoted to move the cursor on the

 

 

 

 

 

screen and also function as the Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down

 

 

 

 

 

keys, respectively.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correction keys

The Insert, Backspace, and Delete keys enable you to make corrections in

 

 

 

 

 

your documents.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Function keys

The 12 function keys along the top of the keyboard are used to perform

 

 

 

 

 

designated tasks. For example, in many applications, F1 is the Help key.

 

 

 

 

 

The task associated with each function key may vary from one

 

 

 

 

 

application to the next.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Escape key

The Esc (Escape) key is used to cancel commands.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Print Screen key

The Print Screen key takes an electronic snapshot of the screen and

 

 

 

 

 

places it in the Windows Clipboard. You can then paste the screen shot

 

 

 

 

 

into a document and print it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Operator keys

Several keys are always used with at least one other key: Ctrl, Alt, and

 

 

 

 

 

Shift. When held down with another key, the Ctrl (Control) and Alt

 

 

 

 

 

(Alternate) keys offer another way to give commands. For example, in

 

 

 

 

 

many applications, instead of choosing the Save command from a menu,

 

 

 

 

 

you can hold down Ctrl and press S (referred to as Ctrl+S). The Shift key

 

 

 

 

 

operates the same way as on a typewriter; it is used to produce capital

 

 

 

 

 

letters or special symbols such as @ and $.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Windows key

The key with the Windows logo displays the Windows Start menu; it is

 

 

 

 

 

the equivalent of clicking the Start button on the task bar. See

 

 

 

 

 

“Indicators” .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fn key

The Fn keys at the left and right sides work the same and are used in

 

 

 

 

 

combination with other keys to issue commands. See “The Fn Key in

 

 

 

 

 

Combination with Other Keys” .

 

 

 

 

 

 

Applications key

The Applications key displays a shortcut menu of context-sensitive

 

 

 

 

 

choices; pressing this key is the equivalent of clicking the right mouse

 

 

 

 

 

button.
