What about selecting the cells, ctrl+c then goto destination and doing a
ctrl+v?

hi,

I have an excel sheet which has a coloured background and cell borders. I
want to copy things into this without loosing this background colour and
border.

I know I could just "paste special" and then "values" but I was wondering
if
there was another, less time consuming way!

TIA

Matt
