Where is the F-Lock Key?

Where is the F-Lock Key?
Microsoft word Help is telling me I need to press the F-Lock key, but I don't know where it is and can't see to find it. Please help.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Lol.
Not all keyboards have that key.
Look at you F1 - F12 keys... Does it look like they have extra functions? Like copying, pasting, open calculator, etc?
If not, your keyboard doesn't need an F-lock.
The F-lock should be above your num-pad. It locks the F-keys either to those extra functions, or the original F1-F12 functions.

Laptop? If so, you can use the 'fn' key, it's usually on the bottom left.

RE: Where is the F-Lock Key?
Let me be more specific. I'm legally blind. When I say I can't see the key, I mean literally cannot see it.

I'm on a desktop. Now if my finger is on the 5 on the num pad, where do I go from there to get to the F-lock thingamajiggy?

Can you take a picture of your keyboard? It can be in different places on different keyboards.

When I pressed CNTL + Z it undid more than I wanted undone but when I pressed CNTL + Y nothing happened. JWindows Help said press f4 and if that didn't work press the F Lock key first then press f4. I'm using Word 2013 where they hid those little blue arrows for undo and redo.

Well that was last night and I ended up having to go back and retype what I hadn't wanted undone, but I still like to know where the dumb f lock key is so I can use it next time.

Again, a pic of your keyboard would help us out enormously.

Why do you poison your life with MS Office 2013? I use MSO 2003 with compatibility tools and I don't have any of the problems I used to have with MSO 2013 which includes yours - undoing more than asked for.
