Data is lost when using Cut command due to Clipboard copied over.
Cause:
When data is cut from an application, the data exists ONLY in the Clipboard. However, the Clipboard can hold only one set of cut or copied data. If new data is cut or copied to the Clipboard before the existing data is pasted, the Clipboard will erase the existing data and replace it with the new data.
Solution:
Use 'Undo' or 'Paste' to restore data lost while cutting.
1) Select the 'Edit' menu and select 'Undo Cut' to undo the Cut command. (The selected data is restored.)
NOTE: The 'Undo' command only reverses the last command performed. If 'Undo Cut' is unavailable, then the cut command was not the last command to be performed.
2) If the data is not restored, select the 'Edit' menu and select 'Paste' to paste the selected text. (The selected text appears.)
3) If the data is not restored:
a) Click 'Undo' toolbar button. (The Undo Action list box appears.)
Undo Action
b) Select the 'Cut' action from the list box. (The selected text is restored to the document.)
c) Select the data.
d) Select the 'Edit' menu and select 'Cut'.
e) Position the cursor at the desired location in the document.
f) Select the 'Edit' menu and select 'Paste'. (The text is pasted at the new location.)
