Task Manager

I have a Dell 2350 with Windows XP Home Edition and here is my question:
 
I was trying to read to see if anyone had asked this question before so I wouldn't bother anyone, and somebody suggested to another poster to try going to  I went to http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/wxptskmg.htm  to check their task manager, SO I DID IT, to check my Task Manager and I have a question please?  It says "Press CNTRL-Alt-Delete (at the SAME time) and select from the pop-up window "Task Manager"
  My question is?   -  on my keyboard I do not have a "cntrl" I have a "CTRL" and this is the oriinal keyboard that came with my pc from Dell, if I press "ctrl and alt along with my delete button I get my task manager. Is this ok?
Thank you,  Jeanne
 
I hope this is not a dumb question but I have lots of questions and I would like very much to learn the correct way to operate my computer.

    Control (Ctrl) is what they meant.

    Pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete will bring up the task manager.

    cntrl and ctrl are both abreviations for control but the keyboard says ctrl           and yes, that was a dumb question (use common sense)

    There is no need to insult people. Some people are just learning how to use comptuters and such, so you have to give them time.

    It might be a fact, but it doesn't need to be stated.
