<< Click to Display Table of Contents >> Inserting copied cells |
You sometimes want to insert copied cells in a place that already contains values. If you only want to move these values rather than overwrite them when pasting something from the clipboard, you have the following option:
The ribbon command Home | group Cells | Insert | Insert copied cells inserts cells, rows or columns from the clipboard into the worksheet.
The program opens a dialog box in which you can select how the cells should be inserted:
▪Move cells down
The copied cells from the clipboard are pasted into the selected place. |
The cells below the insertion will be moved down. |
▪Move cells to the right
The copied cells from the clipboard are pasted into the selected place. |
The cells to the right of the insertion will be moved further to the right. |
▪Insert complete rows
The copied rows from the clipboard are pasted into the selected place. |
The rows below the insertion will be moved down. |
▪Insert complete columns
The copied columns from the clipboard are pasted into the selected place. |
The columns to the right of the insertion will be moved further to the right. |
