There is no such key on standard keyboards. Such questions are related to a humorous but likely apocryphal story about novice computer users.
According to the anecdote, a new PC user encounters the instruction "hit ANY key to continue". Seeing other keys such as enter, escape, shift, and control, the user calls technical support to find out which key on the keyboard is the ANY key. While this seems unbelievably naive, similar queries have been made about various computer instructions since the earliest days of personal computers.
