The CTRL key is used in conjunction with another key. CTRL key combinations are defined by the
application being used. Look in the help menu of the program that you are using to find a list of the
function keys and their uses.
Like the Control Key, the ALT key is used in combination with other keys. In most Windows
programs, each of the menu choices at the top of the screen has one letter underlined. Holding down
the ALT key while pressing the key corresponding to the underlined letter will open the menu just as
though you had clicked your mouse on that menu choice. For instance, if the menu shows the choice
File, you can open that menu by clicking the mouse on the word File or by pressing the ALT key and
the F key simultaneously. The ALT Gr key present on some keyboards functions like the ALT key. It
also allows you to select the third function marked on a key (Euro symbol for example).
E
Cursor Control keys - Cursor control keys let you position the cursor on the screen where you want.
On the screen, the cursor is a blinking underline, block, or vertical bar depending on the application.
The cursor indicates where the next typed text will be inserted.
F
Windows keys - Use the following two keys to facilitate your work.
Shortcut/Application key - provides quick access to shortcut menus. (This key acts like a right
mouse button.)
Floating Window key - displays the Start menu.
