Navigation keystrokes

In addition to character symbols, your handheld includes special keystrokes that you can use to
navigate within text or fields in your applications.

Note:

Some applications may not support these navigation keystrokes.

Using menus

Menus on your handheld are easy to use. Once you have mastered them in one application, you
can use them the same way in all other applications.

The menus and menu commands that are available depend on the application. Also, the menus
and menu commands vary depending on

which part

of the application you’re using. For example,

in Memo Pad, the menus are different for the Memo list screen and the Memo edit screen.

The menus of each application are illustrated in the section on that application in Chapter 6. The
Edit menu is described in the section that begins on page 58.

To use the menu bar:

1. Open an application (such as Memo Pad).

2. Press Menu

to open the menu bar.

Tip:

You can also open the menu bar by tapping the inverted tab at the top of any
application’s screen (except Calculator).
