-If you want to copy from a source onto your own page, have them both open on your screen. Highlight the text and then drag it with the mouse to your own page.
-If you want to copy text to another part of the same page, you have to have another, unrelated page open at the same time.
Highlight the text and then drag it onto the other page. The original will stay where it is.
Now drag the text back as many times as you want.
copy / paste
Copy function will leave copied text or graphic as it is, while Cut function will delete text or graphic but you can still paste it.
To copy and paste on a Chromebook, use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + C to copy the selected text, and Ctrl + V to paste it elsewhere. Alternatively, you can right-click on the selected text and choose the "Copy" or "Paste" options from the context menu.
Cut and Copy are two different functions of Word. Cut will take the Highlighted text from your word document and delete it. When you paste it will move the deleted text to where ever you paste. Copy just dupilcates the highlighted text where ever you paste.
If you mean through the internet, you can highlight the text with your cursor, and press Ctrl+C to copy the text and then press Ctrl+Z to paste the text where you would like it to be. This would be an alternative to traditional methods of copy and paste.
You Have to find the Text itself and copy & paste
Copy - copies the text into temporary (cache) memory Paste - inserts the text you have copied where you want it. Paste as - you can choose the format of what you are pasting.

If you are on a mac, you do not, you cannot.
Copy duplicates text but cut removes it and puts it somewhere else
Copy and paste is where you are able to copy text, and it is one of the most useful things on computers. All you have to do it highlight whatever it is you're wanting to copy. You highlight by clicking one side of the text, then dragging it to the end of the text you're wanting to copy. After this, right click on the highlighted words, and click copy. Then go to wherever you're wanting to put the text, right click, and click paste. Easy! :)
Because the copy & paste functions on a computer are primarily designed to move text around a document. For example - suppose I wanted to change the way the text is written in this answer, I could use the copy & paste functions to rearrange the text to a new order.
