How to copy and Paste in Powerpoint

It's really easy to copy and paste text from other programs into PowerPoint.
For example, you can have a written document in Microsoft Word and you want to put this information in PowerPoint. Sometimes it's easier to write in Word, especially when writing long presentations.
To copy the text into Word, just high-light the text with your mouse. Then go to the menu bar and click [Edit - Copy]. This will copy the text in a high-lighted virtual clipboard residing on your computer. You can then paste the text from the clipboard in any program on your computer.
Return to your PowerPoint presentation and click on a text box. When you see a blinking cursor inside the box, you know you are ready for them. Go to the menu bar and click [Edit - Paste]. The copied text will appear in the text box! Rapture! You are not required to Microsoft Word - you can copy the text of Web pages, too. Just high-light the text of the website and copy as before.
Copy and paste is a basic computer, and used all the time (not just PowerPoint). Therefore, you might want to remember these shortcuts: [Ctrl + C] to copy and [Ctrl + V] to paste.
