Cut and Paste

One of the things we need to do is generate, shape, repackage information for teaching, reports, news, newsletters, and so on. Netscape allows you to access documents and move key information to another document (such as WordPerfect). The key to doing this is that your word processor should be a Windows application.

While you're looking at the document you would like to use, click and hold down the mouse button where you would like to begin, then drag the mouse to the place you would like to end. This process should "highlight" the information. Now click on the Edit menu, and "copy." The selected information is now on the Windows clipboard. If you switch applications, position the cursor to the desired location and then click "paste," the highlighted information from Ohioline should drop into your document.
