"Tab key question"


          

Something I've wondered about for years. What is the significance of the "forward" and "back" arrows, on the Tab key? I know what the Tab key does in normal use.

Thanks in advance.

I don't have arrows on my MS keyboard tab key.

But, Tab alone tabs forward. Shift + tab tabs backwards.

Jim.

Mine is a Logitech K120. What you say makes sense. I just tried it. Of course, you're right. Thanks. Now, at long last...I know everything.

There is no significance.
It is only there for the inquisitive types to inquire about .
