Keyboard Shortcuts

You can save precious time by learning some basic shortcuts on your keyboard for things that you do often. The "Ctrl" button is a control button that basically hooks up with another key(s) and lets you do repeated tasks easily. Hold the Ctrl button down while pressing another letter and voila! For example...
Ctrl and P tells your computer to print.
Ctrl and S tells your computer to save.
Ctrl and X tells your computer to cut.
Ctrl and C tells your computer to copy.
Ctrl and V tells your computer to paste.

To see what a shortcut is, click on the drop down menu such as "Edit". Beside the item that you want to do, there is usually a shortcut to the right. Enjoy!
