Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Text (SAP Library - BC - Word-Processing in the SAPscript Editor)

Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Text

You can rearrange text in your documents by cutting, copying and pasting it: After marking the text, buttons for all three functions appear on the SAPscript text-entry screen. You can also reach these functions by choosing Edit.

Cut. Cutting removes a marked block of text from your document and copies it to a clipboard.

Copy. Copying copies a marked block of text to a clipboard.

Paste. Pasting inserts text from a clipboard in your document at the cursor position.

For information on the clipboards available to SAPscript, see Using Clipboards. For information on marking text, see Marking Text.

You can always retrieve the block of text last stored in the clipboard and

Insert it into the document at another position.

Insert it into the document at several positions.

Insert it into one or more documents.

Note

Only one clipboard is available for each user per client.

You can reinsert a block of text accidentally cut from your document as long as it has not been overwritten in the clipboard.

You cannot retrieve text you deleted using the backspace key, the delete key ( DEL ), or the SAPscript Delete function key.
