You first place the cursor (the flashing arrow or crosshairs) where you want the TEXT to be, then select this icon. Your TEXT should now be there. | Here's your steps: -
The other way, using the sortcut, (called that because it is faster) is to use Ctrl + C. Hold the Ctrl key down then select the 'C' on your keyboard. This step can be completed with one hand, while never removing your hand from the mouse you will have copied to your clipboard, your selection, and your other hand with the mouse is already able to move to the location to complete the next step, pasting. -
The other way again, is to use the keyboard shortcuts. The shortcut for pasting is Ctrl + V. Hold your Ctrl key down then select the 'V' key, again completed using only one hand, your other hand never has to leave the mouse. If you are doing multiple copy/paste items this can save you a fair amount of time by the time you are finished. TIP: The 'C' and the 'V' key are not uppercase. If you have any questions please feel free to ask one of the managers or assistant managers. ©2007GayleHirschberger |
