Mac Shortcut Keys for BANNER by Oracle

I recently got a new MacBook Pro for my office use.  I also use Banner (by Oracle).  I was very sad to hear that the shortcut keys that I used to use, could not be used with a Mac.  I asked my fellow Mac users on campus, and they told me that there were none -- I just had to use my mouse.  WHAT!?  a mouse? This is going to take me forever.  I am on Banner a lot for creating our online courses.  I like to keep my hands on my keyboard for efficiency. I did a Google search, and all I could find were Windows shortcuts.  None for a Mac! :(

So, I began pushing buttons.....and here is what I have found.  I hope these help you!

Block --> Next  (this was CTRL + PAGE DOWN on Windows) 
for Mac, press FN + CTRL + Arrow ▾ key

Block --> Previous (this was CTRL + PAGE UP on Windows)
for Mac, press FN + CTRL + Arrow ▴ key

Query --> Execute (to look up a student/instructor)
FN + F8

Save
FN + F10

Rollback
SHIFT + FN + F7

To me, these were the most important.  Leave a comment for me if you learn more! Thanks!
