Keyboard shortcut

Have you ever been in a situation where one of your hardware components malfunction or is not working at all? These components I am talking about can be a mouse or keyboard. I reckon that about seventy percent of people can work on computers on User levels but only twenty percent can keep on working if any of these components is not working. When the keyboard is not working you can keep on working with your computer by using onscreen keyboard. Again if mouse is malfunctioning you can use keyboards shortcut instead of a mouse.

Below are examples of these shortcuts 

Keyboard shortcut                     Description
CTRL+ S                                       : Save
CTRL+P                                        : Print
CTRL+Y                                        : For Redo
CTRL+Z                                        : For Undo
CTRL+F                                        : Find command
CTRL+G                                        : Find and replace dialog box
CTRL+HOME                               :Top of the document
CTRL+END                                   : Down the document
CTRL+C                                        : Copy
CTRL+A                                        : Select all
F1                                                   : Help
ARROWS                                      : Control the cursor


These were some of the examples of keyboard shortcuts but the list is endless. Notice that most of the shortcut use control key (CTRL).

  1. Sometime using mouse can be time consuming because you have to strech your arm trying to locate it but on the keyboard everthin is in front of you.

    Thanks
