Embedded Numeric Keypad
As you work, you may want to use the embedded numeric keypad (see Figure 1 ) to enter numbers in spreadsheet or
financial programs. The embedded numeric keypad shares some of the keys on your computer's keyboard. The number
and symbol characters are marked to the right on these keys; the cursor-control functions are marked on the front of
these keys. To activate the embedded numeric keypad, press <Num Lk> (the Num Lock indicator lights up).

enabled in the System Setup program.
