Keyboard
Basics
The standard keys perform
the following functions:
➜
Main keys are the
typewriter-style keys.
➜
Function keys are the
F1 through F12 keys.
Two of these keys are
active even without a
program running. F1
enables you to get help
on Windows-related
topics. F3 enables you
to search for files or
folders.
➜
Arrow keys can be
used for games and to
navigate through a
document or Web site.
These keys allow you
to move left, right, up,
and down, using the
keyboard instead of
the mouse.
➜
Numeric keys work
like a calculator
keypad.
