Use Copy (or press Ctrl+Ins) to copy selected text to the Clipboard. The original text is unchanged. You can then use Paste (Shift+Ins) to insert the text at a new position. You can also open a new or existing document and insert the text. Tip: To select text, place the cursor at the beginning of the text and press the Shift+direction keys. The text is still on the Clipboard and can be pasted again. Each time you cut or copy a piece of text, the new text replaces any text on the Clipboard.
