A multi-function hand-held power tool includes an electric motor for driving a tool holder and control means for energizing the motor in accordance with a selected combination of operating conditions under which the tool is to be used. Located on the housing of the tool is a keyboard for inputting to the control means information to define the selected combinations of conditions. The keyboard has a first single key for selecting a tool function, for example drilling, from a defined range of tool functions, a second single key from selecting a required workpiece material for example wood, from a defined range of workpiece materials, and two further keys for selecting, from a defined range, another parameter, for example drill size, appropriate to the selected tool function. A visual display also located on the tool housing is energizable to show symbols indicative of the selected combination of operating conditions.
