Mouse and Keyboard Techniques

Annex Manager allows you to navigate in windows and enter information
using a mouse, keyboard commands, or a combination of both methods.
This section tells you how the mouse works and explains the keyboard
commands that can substitute for the mouse.

Annex Manager uses a mouse to display windows, select text fields, lists,
and buttons, and respond to warning and help windows. You use the same
"point and click" mouse techniques found in other interfaces. The following
