Modifying Cell Content
Excel 2016 provides two ways to modify or change the content of a cell. One is
editing the content in Edit mode and other is overwriting or replacing the entire
content of the cell directly. To activate the Edit mode and change the content of a
cell, follow the given steps:
Step 1: Select the cell in which you want to edit the content.
Step 2: Double-click on the cell whose content you want to change. The Edit mode
is activated and a blinking cursor is appeared in the clicked cell.

Editing cell content
You can now make the required changes. After making all the changes, press the
Enter key from the keyboard. The changed data is displayed in the cell. You can also
click the cell that contains the data that you want to edit, and then press F2 key.
Another way is to select the cell that you want to edit, and then click anywhere in
the formula bar and make the required changes.
COPYING/MOVING DATA
Just similar to Word 2016, data can be copied/moved in Excel 2016 also from one
cell to another. Let us perform these operations.
Cut, Copy and Paste Data
We can use the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands in Microsoft Excel to move or
copy entire cell content. When we use the Cut command, the content is moved to
the new place and removed from its original place. In case of the Copy command,
content is copied at the new place and also exist at its original place. The Paste
command is used to paste the copied/cut data.
