Diagnosis

You want to take entries from the clipboard. However, it is still empty.

System Response

Procedure

You must first put entries into the clipboard.

If, for example, you want to shift a block of fields in a table, you must proceed as follows:

Set the cursor to the first field of the block to be shifted and select Edit -> Select block. Repeat this for the last field of the block to be processed. All the fields of the block are now highlighted.

Select Edit -> Cut (or Edit -> Copy), to put the block in the clipboard.

You can now insert the marked block in front of the field to which the cursor is pointing with Edit -> Paste.
