In Windows, press Ctrl-X. That will place the text into a temporary memory (buffer) which in this case is called the Clipboard. The selected text will also disappear from your document. Later you press Ctrl-V ("Paste") to insert it somewhere else. Were you on a Mac it would be Command-X and Command-V to paste it. Or, you can simply left click it and then choose "cut" but the first method is very much less time consuming. Also, just for general knowledge, Control-C /Command -C can be used to copy the text rather than cutting it.
