Creating a Document in Wordpad


In the Wordpad window, type "Hello World" followed by the Enter key.



Copying

We will create a second "Hello World" line in our document by copying the first line and pasting it into the second line using the copy and paste toolbar buttons. The steps are:
  • Select the text to be copied by highlighting the "Hello World" line. Do this by moving the mouse pointer just to the left of "Hello". The mouse pointer will change to an arrow pointing to the right instead of the left. Left click the mouse to select the line. The selected text appears as white text on a black background.

  • Copy the selected text into the clipboard by clicking on the copy button

The clipboard is a special place in the computer's memory where the selected text is stored before being copied.
