The Windows key can be used in conjunction with other keys to act as a
keyboard shortcut for faster access to menu commands. Now, while the Alt key
tends to open program menus (ex: Alt+F opens the File menu and Alt+E opens
the Edit menu) and the Ctrl key performs actual operations (ex: Ctrl+C will

ARROW TRICKS
Here's a cool little arrow trick to try with word processing programs. Next time
you're using your arrow keys to go from one area of a sentence to another (left
and right arrows), hold down your CTRL key. Instead of moving one space at a
time, you'll go one word at a time.
If you're using the up and down arrows to go from line to line, holding down
the CTRL key will make your cursor jump from paragraph to paragraph (well,
from carriage return to carriage return anyway).
One last thing, if you hold down the SHIFT key while you do this (i.e. hold
down SHIFT + CTRL at the same time), you select text as you arrow along.
I've tested this in MS Word and Wordpad, but it *should* work no matter what
word processing program you use.
Do you ever find yourself scrolling through a huge folder ? Well, if you need to
get to the beginning or the end quickly, just press Ctrl+Home . If you want to
get to the end, click Ctrl+End.
This little trick works on more than just folders. If you use the Home key in a
word processor, it goes to the beginning of the line you're currently working on.
If you hit the END key, it should head to the end of the current line. If you pair
Home & End up with the Ctrl key in a word processor, you will be whisked
away to the beginning or end of the document. Again, this should work, but it
depends on your word processor.
