what is copy and paste?

Question

how to copy and paste ??

Answer 1

real easy, your mouse has a button on the left and on the right the button on the left does ordinary task but the one on the right (sometimes people call clicking with the right button right clicking)
will bring you to menu.
To copy text;
step one: highlight (click at the beginning of the first word and drag it to the end of the last word, and the part that you highlight should be a darker color) and right click the highlighted part. One of the options it gives you will say copy. (it will be under "cut")

step two: go to Microsoft word and in the blank document right click again and click paste (under "copy")

it is very useful, when you don't want to type something over or something from the Internet. To test this out, copy and paste this answer!

Answer 2

Copy and paste is simple it copies the text u have highlights( to do this u must click on the left button on the mouse and drag it along the text) then u must click the right button, and look for copy and click on it with the left button. Where ever you are going to paste it click the right button and select Paste

Answer 3

There are many ways, but I find it easiest to use the keyboard for most of it.

Highlight the text you wish to copy (hold the right button down on your mouse and move it over the text).

Then hold down CTRL and hit the C key. (If you want to Cut, instead of copy, CTRL + X).

Go to where you'd like to paste and hold down CTRL and hit the V key.

Copying and pasting (at least in computers) is when an object (image(s), text(s), etc.) is copied into a temporary location in your computer, called the Office Clipboard. Then when you paste it, a copy of that information is inserted where you have indicated its destination. the shortcuts are:

Copy = ctrl + c

Cut = ctrl + x

Paste = ctrl + v

Answer 5

1. Hold down the mouse and run it over what you want to select.
2. Remove your hand from the mouse.
3. In your keyboard hold down Ctrl and "c" to copy.
4. In your keyboard hold down Ctrl and "p" to paste.

Answer 6

On your computer's word processing program, it's easy. Just click and drag over the item you want to copy, click copy, then move your cursor to wherever you want that item to be located and click paste.Otherwise, it's scissors and paste brush time.

Answer 7

oh lol OK so u highlight something put your mouse over it.
then you do control(ctrl) and c. this is copy. Then where ever you want it, do ctrl + v, with is paste. Ctrl + p would be more logical, but that was reserved for print.

Answer 8

hold down and drag the left mouse button, it will highlight the words or section you want, right click, copy, go somewhere else and paste....or instead of right clicking press ctrl c to copy and ctrl v to paste.

Answer 9

when you hi-light an item (sentence or pic) and click "copy" this puts a temporary "copy" of your hi-lighted item on your computer's "clipboard" (imagine it as a temporary space on your PC's memory).....then when you click Paste (in a program such as Word etc) the last thing you "copied" will be put on the page

** this is temporary...if you turn your PC off, whatever was copied last will be erased from the "temporary memory"

Answer 10

typically used w/microsoft programs. Hightlight text/cells you want to copy, hit ctrl and c at the same time. To paste, you must have first copied something, then hit ctrl and v.
