                                  How we can do Paste

Paste Command: - When you cut or copy text and then paste it into your document then paste option would use.

         For example, if you insert a quotation from a Web page into your document, you may want the quotation to appear in the same font as it is on the Web page. On the other hand, if you copy text from one of your own documents to another, you may prefer that the copied text look like the rest of the text in the document where you paste it.
When you paste content that was copied, you can specify the following default behavior.




·         Keep Source Formatting (Default)   This option retains the formatting of the copied text.
                
·         Match Destination Formatting     This option discards most formatting that was applied directly to the copied text, but it retains formatting that is considered emphasis, such as bold and italic, when it is applied to only a portion of the selection. The text takes on the style characteristics of the paragraph where it is pasted. The text also takes on any direct formatting characteristics of text that immediately precedes the cursor when the text is pasted.

·         Keep Text Only     This option discards all formatting and non text elements such as pictures or tables. The text takes on the style characteristics of the paragraph where it is pasted and takes on any direct formatting or character style properties of text that immediately precedes the cursor when the text is pasted. Graphical elements are discarded, and tables are converted to a series of paragraphs.

There is three options are available to paste data.


There is three options are available to paste data.



1.     Paste
2.     Paste Special

3.     Paste as Hyperlink

In Word, you can choose either of these options each time that you paste text. If you commonly want one of the options, you can set it as the default for pasted text.

1.     Paste: - After using cut or copy to set the text in the other place we will use Paste option. It will also come by the pressing Ctrl + V.


2.     Paste Special - Paste Special is a feature gives you more control of how the content is displayed or functions when pasted from the clipboard. Paste special is typically found in Office Suites such as Microsoft Office and Open Office, and is very commonly used in Word, Excel, Writer, and Calc to provide special formatting or calculations when pasting content into a document.



For example, text copied from a Web page often retains much or all of the HTML formatting, which may not match the colors, fonts, or other text formatting being used in the document. By using Paste Special, you can choose to paste unformatted text (doesn't have a different font, isn't bold, doesn't contain links, etc.). Below is an example of the choices that are offered when using Paste Special in OpenOffice.org Writer.

3.     The paste as hyperlink option in Word is ideally used for linking to different Pages / sections within the same document or to different documents as a reference point or listing.



As an example,
1.) Open up two documents in word, highlight a heading in the first document and copy it. Your link has now been added to the other document, click on the new link while holding the CTRL key and you will be sent to the other document. 


2.) Go to the second document and place the cursor where 
you want to Paste then click Paste as Hyperlink the link to go and go to Edit.



3.) Your link has now been added to the other document, 

click on the Open Hyperlink and click yes button then you 

will be sent to the other document. 







                                  Formate Painter


Format Painter:-
In Word 2007 you can copy the format of selected text and paste the copied attributes to a 'target' selection. Simply select the text, double click the Format Painter on the Home tab (it then remains active until you press Esc or click the button again). Note the paintbrush that stalks your cursor as you move it. When you select your target text, the copied formatting is applied as soon as you release the mouse button.

A number of Microsoft Office programs, including Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher and Word offer the pre-defined Format Painter tool. Format Painter is used when you want to copy formatting from one item to another. For example if you have written text in Word, and have it formatted using a specific font type, color, and font size you could copy that formatting to another section of text by using the Format Painter tool.



Office Clipboard

The Office Clipboard works with the standard Copy and Paste commands. Just copy an item to the Office Clipboard to add it to your collection, and then paste it from the Office Clipboard into any Office document at any time. The collected items stay on the Office Clipboard until you exit all Office programs or you delete the items from the Clipboard task pane.


After you exit all Office programs, only the last item that you copied stays on the Office Clipboard. When you exit all Office programs and restart your computer, the Office Clipboard is cleared of all items.
The Office Clipboard and the system Clipboard
The Office Clipboard is related to the system Clipboard in Microsoft Windows in the following ways:
*  When you copy multiple items to the Office Clipboard, the last item that you copy is always copied to the system Clipboard.
*  When you clear the Office Clipboard, the system Clipboard is also cleared.
*  When you use the Paste command, the Paste button, or the keyboard shortcut CTRL+V, you paste the contents of the system Clipboard, not the Office Clipboard.
