Cut/Copy and Paste!

Here's a simple and quick tip...

Many computer users are not aware of a very easy method for cutting/copying and pasting text in documents.

Most people will highlight the text, use the mouse, right click and select “Copy” then right click and select “paste”.

If you’re like me, and use the keyboard more often then the mouse, this can really slow you down.

There is a much faster keyboard shortcut for accomplishing this task.

To copy text:

Highlight the text Hold down the Ctrl key and press ‘c’ - this places the text into a buffer (a save area)

To cut text:

Highlight the text Hold down the Ctrl key and press ‘x’

To paste text:

Position your cursor where you want the text to be copied and hold down the Ctrl key and press ‘v’.

To undo a Cut or Copy or Paste:

Hold down the Ctrl key and press ‘z’

That’s it!
