Making Your Computer Work for You

Detailed instructions for Exercise 4

Copy and Paste from Web Browser to Email

  1. Select paragraph 4 from your word processor document and copy it.
  2. Exit from the word processor.
  3. Open your favorite email program.
  4. In the email program, create a new message and address it to yourself.
  5. In the body of the message, position the cursor where you would like to insert the paragraph.
  6. Use the paste command in the email program to insert the paragraph into your message.
  7. Send the message.

Notice that the copy, although made in the word processor, continued to exist in the clipboard after you exited from the word processor. It was still there when you needed it to paste into the email message.

Go back to the main documentation page.
