corrections in your documents.
Function keys
The twelve function keys along the top of the keyboard are used to

Help key. The task associated with each function key may vary from
one application to the next.
Escape key
The Esc (Escape) key is used to cancel commands.
Print Screen key
The Print Screen key takes an electronic snapshot of the screen and
places it in the Windows Clipboard. You can then paste the screen
shot into a document and print it.
