Move Text

Moving text deletes the text from its original location and places the same text at another position in the document. There are several ways to move text.

Method 1

1	Define the block of text to be moved (see define text).

2	Click Edit, Cut (or Press Ctrl+X). The status bar will read "Cut to Clipboard."

3	Move the cursor to the point where you want to insert the defined text.

4	Click Edit, Paste (or press Ctrl+V).

5	The same text can be inserted in a second place by repeating steps 3 and 4.

Method 2

1	Define the block of text to be moved (see define text).

2	Place the cursor on the defined text and hold the left button down while you drag the defined block to its new location.

3	Release the left button when the cursor is at the point where you want to insert the moved text.

Method 3

This method can be used only if the Nota Bene text definition option is active. The Nota Bene text definition option allows you to move the cursor away from the defined block without losing the definition. This is required in step 2. If the defined block changes to regular text when you attempt to move the cursor away from the block, then the Windows standard text definition option is active. To change to the Nota Bene text definition option, press Ctrl+F2. For more details, see Select text (detailed explanation).

1	Define the block of text to be moved.

2	Use any of the directional keys (4 arrow keys or Page Up, Page Down, Home, End) to move the cursor to the point where you want to insert the defined text

3	Press Ctrl+M
