I do not know how other people copy and paste, but I know that the old way I learned was to highlight the text I want to copy then using the keyboard hit Control+C to copy then I go to where I want to paste the text and after clicking there and seeing a cursor blinking there I hit Control+V to paste. The way to remember this is the C stands for Copy and the V looks like a scissors and stands for Paste. Am I just old fashioned? I hardly ever use any other way even if it is provided.

It is possible most of us use the mouse way, right click brings up the Copy Cut or paste menu and then click where you want it to go and right click and choose paste. I use both <G> Eliz On Thu, May 3, 2012 at 5:06 PM, duane canaday <searcher51us@yahoo.com>wrote: > I do not know how other people copy and paste, but I know that the old way > I learned was to highlight the text I want to copy then using the keyboard > hit Control+C to copy then I go to where I want to paste the text and after > clicking there and seeing a cursor blinking there I hit Control+V to paste. > > The way to remember this is the C stands for Copy and the V looks like a > scissors and stands for Paste. > > Am I just old fashioned?

four ways;: file or graphic to copy or paste to place cursor on copy to be moved... and drag it to final destination THIS IS TO MOVE FILES.. AS IN CUT AND PASTE.. ((( I do not recommend this as sometimes file gets dropped into incorrect file and folder or drive.. and it also drags along stuff you do not wish to drag along.. ) keep in mind: right click brings up menu for additional commands.. left click executes that command 2. place cursor on file or graphic or highlighted text to be copied (cut) , go to menu bar "edit' scroll down to copy then locate desitination folder and EDIT , scroll down to paste.. it copies and pastes.. 2. place cursor on file or graphic or highlighted text to be copied (cut) then right click on mouse or on touch pad right pad.. and left click locate destination folder... and then again, right click on the mouse or touch pad right pad .. and left click to paste. and right click to execute command. finally what was suggested earlier.. use of the CTRL key and C for copy and then CTRL key and V for paste.. Gloria hope I put it all in.. (can google and get written instructions or even U tube) On Thu, May 3, 2012 at 2:29 PM, Eliz Hanebury <elizhgene@gmail.com> wrote: > It is possible most of us use the mouse way, right click brings up the Copy > Cut or paste menu and then click where you want it to go and right click > and choose paste.
