Appendix A. Keyboard Shortcuts
You can do almost anything in Quicken by clicking something—the Tool Bar, a menu bar, a drop-down menu, or an onscreen button. But it takes time to mouse around from click to click, especially if your hand-eye coordination leaves something to be desired. Even if you spend only a few minutes a day with Quicken, keyboard shortcuts are your friends. They take you right where you want to go in a fraction of the time it takes to mouse there. This appendix lists Quicken’s most useful keyboard shortcuts; the ones you should commit to memory are at the beginning of each section.
Note
For a complete list of Quicken’s keyboard shortcuts, search the program’s Help file (press F1 to open Help) for “keys” or “keyboard shortcuts.”
