Key	Description
Numeric keypad area	Contains the keys found on a typical calculator. Use the numeric
	keypad area to type numbers or to perform mathematical
	calculations such as addition and subtraction. Note: you must press
	the Num Lock key to activate the numeric keypad. (When you do so,
	the Num Lock light will be on.)
Navigation keys	Several keys are devoted to moving the cursor on the screen.
Correction keys	The Insert, BackSpace, and Delete keys enable you to make
	corrections in your documents.
Function keys	The twelve 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 taskbar. See
	“Combinations and Functions with the Windows Key” on page 41.
Fn key	The Fn key is used in combination with other keys to issue
	commands. See “Combinations and Functions with the Fn Key” on
	page 43.
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.
