Ctrl+C or Ctrl+Insert and Ctrl+X
Both
Ctrl+C and
Ctrl+Insert will copy
highlighted text or a selected item. If you want to
cut an item instead of copying it, press
Ctrl+X. This action removes the text or picture and stores it in the
clipboard for you, rather than
copying it to the clipboard while leaving the original behind.
Apple computer users can substitute the Ctrl key for the
command (cmd) key on their computers. For example, pressing
Cmd+C copies highlighted text.
Ctrl+V or Shift+Insert
Both
Ctrl+V and
Shift+Insert will
paste the text or object that's stored in the
clipboard.
On Apple computers, use Cmd+V instead.
Pressing
Ctrl+Z will
undo any change. For example, if you cut text, pressing this key combination will undo the cut. These shortcuts can also be pressed multiple times to undo or redo multiple changes.
On Apple computers, use Cmd+Z to undo.
