Should add you only need to hit enter if you have - NVMT

another entry starting with an I in your start menu. You could also rename your internet to a number such as "1" and hit the Window key and then the number 1 and it will open your browser automatically.
Hope it helps!
Define "get to the internet." - SM

If by that phrase you mean "I already have an Internet connection and I want my browser window to open" then, no, not all laptops have such a button.
There are lots of different ways of setting up things that will launch your browser, but probably the easiest would be to just drag the icon for your browser from your start menu down into your quick launch area of the taskbar.
Not if you do not want to use a mouse and want - NVMT

to just use the keyboard. IMHO. Of course you can still use a keyboard with a designated internet button. Again, just my opinion.
or use a utility to launch any program with a specific keystroke combo - nm

Any Ediscript MTs.... How Do You Use The Shortcut Keys? Jan 22, 2011Hi all,
Any MTs who work on Editscript. Do you use the shortcuts recommeded by the program or do you do your own workaround and remap keys or use Shorthand to map a different key to do the same or a combination of key commands. I tried using shorthand to overide the other key commands in Editscript and it will not let me. I like to use my ALT K and ALT J keys to move forward and back in the report rather than CTL right arrow or left arrow, but it will not let me create that in ...

Do Any Of You Use Jump Keys? Mar 12, 2014Hello! Do any of you use jump keys? For example, I have asterisks (*) in all of my templates in places where I need to insert something (vitals, he/she, etc.).. I made a macro that says anytime I use a quick key (for me it was Alt+x), it would jump to the next asterisk and I could quickly type whatever needed to go in that spot. I recently had some new software put on my computer and it completely took out that macro. This is bad because these jump keys are a HUGE timesaver! Unfortun ...
