No offense intended :-) It's just a pretty good primer.

I assume you mean Copy and Paste. It's simply a matter of selecting the
range to copy (paint it out by dragging over the range with the mouse or
using the arrow keys with the Shift key down) and doing an Edit, Copy (or
Ctrl-c as a shortcut). Then select the first cell in the destination
workbook and worksheet and press Enter. You can move with one workbook to
another using the Window menu or the shortcut key Ctrl-Tab.
