A standard full-size keyboard includes two Enter, Ctrl, and Alt keys; editing keys; cursor positioning keys; and a numeric keypad. Your computer’s keyboard includes only one Enter key. Most of the time, this does not matter. However, some programs assign separate functions to the regular and numeric pad Enter keys on the full-sized keyboard. Using the Fn key, you can simulate the separate key, as follows: Press Fn and Enter simultaneously to simulate the Enter key on the numeric pad of the enhanced keyboard.
