Cut, Copy & Paste

There are a couple of ways to copy and paste, or cut and paste. first you need to highlight the text you want to copy or cut. Some will highlight in blue or others will highlight in black depending on program your using. For intstance Microsoft word will highlight in black. Groups message boards will highlight in Blue (It can also depend on your display settings).

To highlight put your cursor at end of text and then drag it along to begining of text holding down your left button on mouse.

Let go and go to Edit (or right click) then copy or cut. Your computer always remembers the last thing you coppied or cut. So now you can go to where you want to paste your text, and paste your text the same way. As diagram below.

You can also right click on your text you have highlighted and it will give you the options to copy, cut, and paste. In group message windows you will not beable to do this , you have to use the tools they provide. You can also use the keys on your key board to cut and paste. Using Ctrl + C for copy and Ctrl + V for paste. To cut use Ctrl+ X . To Undo your last move use Ctrl + Z, I use this one for undoing my mistakes.

The difference between Cut and Copy is:

Copy: The original stays in place.

Cut: The original is taken out of its place.
