Move and copy


  Select what you want to move or copy.     Choose Cut from the Edit menu to move the selection, or choose Copy to copy it.
  Put the insertion point where you want the selection to appear.   Choose Paste.


Choosing Cut or Copy places the current selection on the pasteboard--the computer's holding place for information you're transferring from place to place.
The Paste command inserts the contents of the pasteboard at the insertion point, or if you selected text, in place of the selection.
You can copy and move inline graphics just like you would move any other character.
You can copy or move text or graphics. You can copy part of one document into another document. Or you can copy from a window in another application.
