Function keys are programmable. Throughout Microsoft's programs the function keys are similar in their functions. With this said, programmers use several keys in conjunction with the function keys to perform up to 3 other functions. F1 generally brings up the help menus. F2 brings up a edit function, in some programs it is referred to as "Rename". F3 Varies program to program. F4 Varies program to program. F5 is used as a refresh function. F6 Varies program to program. F7 Spell checker in Word or the Internet, etc. F8 Varies program to program. F9 Varies program to program. F10 Menu bar. F11 Varies program to program. F12 Save menu, in my program it is.

It is context dependent!
Depending on the program you are running, it does different things... in WINDOWS, for example, F1 usually activates a HELP function...
But, again, you should check each program you use for a definition of the "F" keys it uses!

Overall...nothing. They can be used in combination with other keys such as alt+F4 to exit a program. They can be programmed to use in games and such as well.

It really depends on the program you're in. Some programs use them, some don't.
