selected. However, by highlighting some text
before pressing

with the pasted text. Thus you can easily replace
one block of text with another by highlighting it
before pasting.

can be pasted in the Calc application. Any text that
is pasted will be ignored.
Copying or Moving Entries
The CUT/COPY/PASTE operations provide a quick,
convenient way for you to copy or move an entire entry to
another location. Entries do not have to be in the same file
or even in the same application, since CUT/COPY/PASTE
work across virtually all applications.

Index mode.
2. Press 2nd CUT if you want to move the entry. A
message will ask if you are sure you want to delete
the entry from its present location. Press
Y to
proceed (or N to cancel the operation).
Press 2nd COPY if you want to make a copy of the entry.
3. Press NEW in the application you want to move or
copy the entry to. You can also append the copied/cut
entry to an existing entry. Open an entry in Edit mode,
and move the cursor to the position where you want
to append the entry.
4. Press 2nd PASTE .
5. Make any necessary changes to the moved/copied
entry. Press
ENTER to store the entry when you
have finished.
The entry you selected is now moved or copied to the new
location.
