'Article ID: Q48283

Creation Date: 24-AUG-1989

Revision Date: 09-SEP-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, versions 4.0, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0

SUMMARY

If you do the following in Microsoft Word, everything in the cell you are trying to paste into is replaced:


 * 1) Highlight the information in a cell including the small bullet at the end of the cell.
 * 2) Copy the highlighted information.
 * 3) Paste the highlighted information into another cell.

To correctly copy information and add it to another cell, you must highlight the information WITHOUT the bullet and copy it. You then can place your insertion point into a cell and paste the information. This procedure is meant to allow you to copy a section of a table and paste it into another section, completely replacing the old with the new.
