                 Copying and Pasting Text

                 Copying means duplication of certain contents of a document by pasting the copy of selected content
                 to some other location in or outside a document. A user can use
                 Copy and Paste options to copy existing text from one location
                 in a document and then paste it to another location. The Copy
                 command stores a duplicate copy of the selected text, leaving the
                 original selected content unchanged. The Paste command pastes
                 the selected content at the insertion point. To copy text using the
                 Copy and Paste options, follow these steps:

                 Step 1:   Select the text you want to copy.
                 Step 2:   Click the Edit menu on the Menu bar.
