Print this pageForward this document  The "ditto" key

When you need to enter the same keyword or portion of text repeatedly (e.g. medical expenses paid to the same pharmacy), the "ditto" key is very useful.

To repeat the previous keyword, press the "ditto" key (single quote ['], or double quotes ["]). On a French keyboard, press [Shift+2]. Press the "ditto" key again and the text data from the previous keyword will be repeated as well.
