Margaret:
What you can do is use the JAWS (Insert next to the numeric keypad) key
along with the F1 key and press keys to learn where all of the "missing"
keys are.

Sorry-I should have said that the keyboard is full sized and not for a
laptop.

Hi All,
My new Windows 7 machine was delivered this afternoon and it meant that I
got a new keyboard. The six pack keys on the new keyboard are arranged
differently from those of my old keyboard and there doesn't seem to be an
insert key in the six pack. The computer is a Dell and I think the
keyboard is as well. Instead of 3 columns containing 2 keys each this
keyboard has 2 columns of 3 keys each . the leftmost column moving down
is home, end, delete. The right hand column moving from top to bottom has
page up, page down, and the bottom most is silent and JAWS says nothing
with Insert 1 for key identifier. Has anyone heard of this arrangement?
Where might the Insert key that was in the six pack on the old keyboard be
on the new one? It was a long afternoon and my brain is fried and I can't
remember where to look to get the brand and model number of this keyboard.
I did check it out very briefly, before telling my tech it would do, but
he only said to see how typing on it felt and, like a moron, I forgot to
check out the layout of the keys
Thank you,
Margaret.
