RDP full screen w/o break-pause key?

I have a new laptop w/o a break key and need to toggle full screen Ctrl-Alt-Break on RDP sessions.  Is there a workaround for these new laptops that no longer have a break key?  I have seen others asking the same question but no resolutions.  Many repies say use fn-pause but there is no pause key either.

    I have a Dell Latitude laptop with no break key.  To get back to fullscreen, I press Ctrl - Alt - Fn - Insert

    I've found another way to connect via RDP with Full screen by change rdp options file:

    1. Save your connection options (Options-General-Connection Settings - Save as)
    2. Choose directory which will contain your RPD connection in future and save it.
    3. Open just saved rpd file in any text editor
    4. Replace option named "screen mode id:i:1" with "screen mode id:i:0" and save edited file.
    5. Double click on rdp file and we can enjoy our remouting with Full screen mode
