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
allows you to get help
on Windows-related
topics. F3 allows you to
search for files or
folders.
➜ Arrow keys can be
used for games and to
navigate in 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.
