COPYING/MOVING DATA
Just similar to Word, data can be copied/moved from one cell to another in Excel. Let us perform
these operations.
Cut, Copy, and Paste Data
We can use the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands in Excel to move or copy entire cell content. The
Cut command moves the content to a new location, removing it from its original location. In the
case of the Copy command, content is copied to the new location, and it also exists in its original
location. The Paste command is used to paste the copied/cut data.
