THE SHORTCUTS
When using word processing software, instead of using the Menu bar for
operations it is possible to use a combination of the Ctrl key and another key
on the keyboard to perform the same thing.
This is called a short-cut. Below are the most common short cuts used
when doing word processing.
Save = ctrl + s
Print= ctrl + p
Open a file = ctrl + o
Select All = ctrl + a (highlights the entire document)
Cut = ctrl + x
Copy = ctrl + c
Paste = ctrl + v
NOTICE! That the x, c, and v keys are all in a row on your keyboard
Open a new document = ctrl + n
Undo typing = ctrl + z (please see Explanation below)
Close a document = ctrl + w
Find a word = ctrl + f
Replace a word = ctrl + h
Explanation
If you make a mistake and want to undo it - this is the short cut you
should use. It is important to do this
as soon as you make the mistake. If you made the mistake several transactions
back it may not work.
Note
You can find these shortcuts by clicking on File or Edit on the Menu
bar
Also by right clicking on the text you will get a menu that allows some
of these shortcuts, like copy, or cut, or paste.
