Shortcut keys are available on Windows Mobile Professional and Windows Mobile Classic when a hardware keyboard is present.

Windows Mobile Standard do not support shortcut keys; however, certain commands are labeled numerically to provide a user with a shortcut for activating the command.

The functionality of the shortcut keys in your application should be consistent with shortcut keys in other applications to ensure a consistent user experience. Do not display shortcut keys on menus; they are features for advanced users and may add clutter to the user interface.

The following table lists the shortcut keys used for common commands.
