General Computers - Keystrokes and Message Boxes

SUMMARY: These keyboard shortcuts work most of the time when message boxes appear onscreen.

Here is another of those tips which I originally thought "everyone knows it, why bother?" After doing analysis and consulting work on various systems, however, I realized I had thought wrong.

Save yourself some mouse movement: When a message box appears on the screen asking you to click on an "OK" button to continue, most of the time you can press the "ENTER" key to substitute for clicking the "OK" button. Or, pressing the ESCAPE key usually works as a substitute for a "CANCEL" button.

 

Press the "print" button on your browser or select "File" - "Print" to print this tip. Then, return to General Computers - Keystrokes and Message Boxes
