i am a 10-key user and the numeric keypad is setup like a phone, not a calculator.  Any way to change this? I have windows 8.1 on my acer tablet. Thank you.

    The keyboard is pretty set, I wan't able to change either of the on-screen keyboards to show the 7, 8, & 9 on top, only bottom.

    Which Windows tablet are you asking about? I have a W4 handy and there is a drop down selection at the top that allows me to selec scientific. When I turn the tablet so it's in portrait mode it puts the 7, 8, & 9 on the top on the right side of the screen.

    It's a switch 10...sw5.012.

    Thanks for the update. When you have the calculator application open, you should be able to click on where it says scientific at the top and that should change it for you.
