Working with the Keyboard and Mouse

Compaq Easy Access Keyboard

In addition to the standard keyboard keys, the Compaq Easy Access

Keyboard offers eight Easy Access Buttons that make accessing your

favorite Web sites, services, and applications easier and faster.

Programming the Easy Access Buttons

All Easy Access Buttons can be reprogrammed to open any software

application or data file on your hard drive, or any Internet address.

An Internet address, also referred to as a Uniform Resource Locator

(URL), is simply a pointer to a Web page, file, image, newsgroup, or

other resource available on the Internet. It is very similar to the path

and file name used to point to a file on the Personal Computer’s hard

drive. For example, the URL that points to the Compaq Web site is

http://www.compaq.com.

To reprogram your Easy Access Buttons, complete the following

steps:

1. Double-click the keyboard icon located in the status area (lower

right corner) of the Windows taskbar.

The Keyboard Properties dialog is displayed.

2. Click the Help button for instructions.
