<p><spanclass="onlineDocumentFeatures">In the <em>online version</em>, the following key combinations are only used to copy or paste data from/into another spreadsheet or some other program,</span><spanclass="desktopDocumentFeatures">in the <em>desktop version</em>, both the corresponding buttons/menu options and key combinations can be used for any copy/paste operations:</span></p>
<pclass="note"><b>Note</b>: instead of cutting and pasting data within the same worksheet you can select the required cell/cell range, hover the mouse cursor over the selection border so that it turns into the Arrow <imgalt="Arrow icon"src="../images/arrow.png"/> icon and drag and drop the selection to the necessary position.</p>
<p>To enable / disable the automatic appearance of the <b>Paste Special</b> button after pasting, go to the <b>File</b> tab > <b>Advanced Settings...</b> and check / uncheck the <b>Cut, copy and paste</b> checkbox.</p>
<p>Once the copied data is pasted, the <b>Paste Special</b><imgalt="Paste Special"src="../images/pastespecialbutton.png"/> button appears next to the lower right corner of the inserted cell/cell range. Click this button to select the necessary paste option. </p>
<p>When pasting a cell/cell range with formatted data, the following options are available:</p>
<li><em>Paste only formula</em> - allows you to paste formulas without pasting the data formatting.</li>
<li><em>Formula + number format</em> - allows you to paste formulas with the formatting applied to numbers.</li>
<li><em>Formula + all formatting</em> - allows you to paste formulas with all the data formatting.</li>
<li><em>Formula without borders</em> - allows you to paste formulas with all the data formatting except the cell borders.</li>
<li><em>Formula + column width</em> - allows you to paste formulas with all the data formatting and set the source column`s width for the cell range.</li>
<li><em>Transpose</em> - allows you to paste data switching them from columns to rows, or vice versa. This option is available for regular data ranges, but not for formatted tables.</li>
<li><em>Source formatting</em> - allows you to keep the source formatting of the copied data.</li>
<li><em>Destination formatting</em> - allows you to apply the formatting that is already used for the cell/autoshape where the data are to be iserted to.</li>
<p>When pasting the delimited text copied from a <b>.txt</b> file, the following options are available:</p>
<pclass="note">The delimited text can contain several records, and each record corresponds to a single table row. Each record can contain several text values separated with a delimiter (such as a comma, semicolon, colon, tab, space or other characters). The file should be saved as a plain text <b>.txt</b> file.</p>
<li><em>Keep text only</em> - allows you to paste text values into a single column where each cell contents corresponds to a row in the source text file.</li>
<li><em>Use text import wizard</em> - allows you to open the <b>Text Import Wizard</b> which helps to easily split the text values into multiple columns where each text value separated by a delimiter will be placed into a separate cell.
<p>When the <b>Text Import Wizard</b> window opens, select the text delimiter used in the delimited data from the <b>Delimiter</b> drop-down list. The data splitted into columns will be displayed in the <b>Preview</b> field below. If you are satisfied with the result, press the <b>OK</b> button.</p>
<p>If you pasted delimited data from a source that is not a plain text file (e.g. text copied from a web page etc.), or if you applied the <em>Keep text only</em> feature and now want to split the data from a single column into several columns, you can use the <b>Text to Columns</b> option. </p>
<p>To split data into multiple columns:</p>
<ol>
<li>Select the necessary cell or column that contains data with delimiters.</li>
<li>In the <b>Delimiter</b> drop-down list, select the delimiter used in the delimited data.</li>
<li>Click the <b>Advanced</b> button to open the <b>Advanced Settings</b> window in which you can specify the <b>Decimal</b> and <b>Thousands</b> separators.
<pclass="note"><b>Note</b>: if you need to create a series of numbers (such as 1, 2, 3, 4...; 2, 4, 6, 8... etc.) or dates, you can enter at least two starting values and quickly extend the series selecting these cells and dragging the fill handle. </p>
<h3>Fill cells in the column with text values</h3>
<p>If a column in your spreadsheet contains some text values, you can easily replace any value within this column or fill the next blank cell selecting one of already existing text values.</p>
<p>Right-click the necessary cell and choose the <b>Select from drop-down list</b> option in the contextual menu.</p>
<p><imgalt="Select from drop-down list"src="../images/selectfromlist.png"/></p>
