WINDOWS KEYSTROKES AND TIPS

Equivalent of a right click

Shift+F10 gives the equivalent of a mouse's right click. If you've not used a right click much when working in Windows, you've missed a lot of opportunities to get more detailed information--with ease--and to take many actions.

DID YOU KNOW?

Using "who" and "whom"

Use "who" when someone is the SUBJECT of a sentence, clause, or phrase. Use it whenever he, she, they, I, or we could be substituted for the "who" clause.

Use "whom" when someone is the OBJECT of a verb or preposition. Use it whenever him, her, them, me, or us could be substituted as the object of the verb or as the object of a preposition in the "whom" clause.
