I do alot of typing for my job at the moment and im constantly having to click the mouse to highlight, copy and paste a word.

I know there are certain keys on the keyboard you can press to do this instead of using the mouse.

Any ideas what they are?

Thank you

You can use a combination of CTRL+SHIFT and the arrow keys to highlight single words in a document. And yes use CTRL+C to copy and CTRL+V to paste. A few other handy tricks are:

CTRL+X = Cut
ALT+TAB = Navigate easily through open Windows on the desktop

You will still have to select (highlight) the word by using the arrow key and shift. Then hit Cntl plus C for copy, and Cntl plus V for paste. I prefer this method as saves time..
