The END Key

For this tip, I borrowed liberally from the folks at WorldStart.com, where lots of good hints reside. Perhaps you, like me, spend a lot of time scrolling to the bottom of web pages and documents when just a little tap would do the job nicely. My own personal new year’s resolution: Give the End key a chance! Enjoy…..

From WorldStart Computer Tips ….
You’ve probably seen the End key on your keyboard, but have you ever used it? Have you ignored it because you don’t really know what it does? The End key can do different things, depending on the program you’re using. Its main use is to help you quickly move from the top of a page to the bottom. For example,let’s say you’re browsing the Internet for some FAQs on a specific topic. You find a great Web site that will help you out, but your question is answered clear at the bottom of the page. Do you sit there and scroll all the way to the bottom? Well, you shouldn’t! Instead, use the End key.

Hit it once and you’ll be whisked away to the bottom of any Web page, document, file, etc. Or, if you’re working with some shorter text, End sometimes takes you the end of a line, which is also helpful and a much faster way of doing things.

Location: The End key is on the right side of your keyboard, under the Home key and between Delete and PageDn. It can be found on any PC keyboard and on some Macintosh extended keyboards. It really is a great use of a key, so go try it out!
