Copy and paste in dialogs

As well as using copy and paste to transfer data between applications, you can copy and paste into dialog boxes and formula entry lines. You will need to make use of the shortcut keys to do this:

Ctrl+C  Copy

Ctrl+V  Paste

  1. Select it by double-clicking on it.

  2. Press Ctrl+C to copy it.

  3. Switch to Spreadsheet.

  4. Click the Open button image\open.gif.

  5. Press Ctrl+V to paste it into the File name box.
