Once a window is open, the focus within the window is indicated by a red square (regardless of the color scheme chosen). For panes that show tabs, press the Tab key (or Shift-Tab keys) to move the focus until the red square is around the entire pane showing the tabs. Then use the right and left arrow keys to step between the different tabs within the pane. When the desired pane is displayed and you have placed the focus on it (by pressing the Tab key), press Ctrl+Y to activate the pane. You may then manipulate the records and data in the pane using the following techniques:

• To switch between Form View (a single record) and Grid View (multiple records), press Ctrl+G.
• To move from record to record, press the up or down arrow keys. The record on which the focus rests is highlighted in the color of the selected color scheme.
• If the pane shows multiple pages of records, move the focus to the pane and then press the Page Down key to move to the next page of records. To return to a previous page, use the Page Up key (provided the focus is on the pane).
• Once the desired record is highlighted, press the Tab key to move the focus from column to column within the record. (The focus only moves between editable fields.) You may move the focus in the opposite direction by pressing the Shift+Tab keys.
• For fields that show values, when the focus is on the field you may press the Delete key to remove the current data and then you can type the new data. Alternately, you may use the right and left arrow keys to step through the characters of the data, press the Backspace key to remove one or more characters, and then type the new characters.
• For drop-down list fields, when the focus is on the field begin typing the characters that will appear in the field. The system will display all items from the list that match what you have typed as you type. You may continue typing the remaining characters or you may use the down arrow key to step through the displayed list items until the desired item is highlighted. Once the desired value is shown in the field, press the Tab key to select the value and move the focus to the next editable field.
• For check boxes, when the focus is on the field press the space bar  to change the state of the check box. After pressing the space bar, press the Tab key to keep the new check box state.
• To display the shortcut menu for the pane, press Ctrl+M. You may then use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the desired command in the shortcut menu. Once the desired command is highlighted, press the Enter key to execute the command. (You may close the shortcut menu without selecting a command by pressing the ESC key.)
• To close a dialog box or other pop-up window, press Ctrl+S.

The above techniques are for panes that show tabular data. For panes that show tree views, the techniques are similar:

• The up and down arrow keys move the focus between nodes at the same level.
• The left arrow key moves the focus up one level in the hierarchy. Conversely, the right arrow key moves the focus down one level in the hierarchy.
• To expand a branch of a hierarchy, press the Enter key. To collapse the branch, press the Shift+Enter keys.
• To select a node, press the space bar. If you press the space bar again, the node is deselected.

When you are finished working in a pane, press CTRL+U to de-activate the pane and return to navigating from pane to pane with the Tab key. You may also return to menu selection by pressing CTRL+, (Control+Comma), which places the focus on the Utilities menu.
To save data, press Ctrl+>.
