The Keys

The Arrow Keys

The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow –
up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that
indicates where the next character you type will appear.

The [INS] Key

The [INS] key inserts a character at the cursor position.

The [DEL] Key

The [DEL] key erases the character at the cursor position.

The [BKSP] Key

The [BKSP] key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor
one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.

The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key

The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are
application dependent.

The [TAB] Key

Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or
downward.

The [ESC] Key

Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog
box or activity and return to the previous one.

The [SPACE] Key

Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog
box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.

The [HOME] Key

The [HOME] key moves the cursor to the top of the form or page.

The [END] Key

The [END] key moves the cursor to the bottom of the form or page.
