Cutting, copying, and pasting cells
You can cut, copy, or paste a single table cell or multiple cells at once, preserving the cell formatting. You can paste
cells at the insertion point or paste over a selection in an existing table.
The selected cells must be contiguous and in the shape of a rectangle. For example, the selection in this illustration
is a rectangle of cells, so the cells can be cut or copied.
The selection in this illustration is not a rectangle, so the cells can't be cut or copied.
Cutting and copying table cells
You can copy a single cell or multiple cells, and cut the cells, or the cells' content, from the table. You can copy a single
cell or multiple cells, and paste the cells in the same or another table (see "Pasting table cells" on page 125).

In your draft, select one or more cells, rows, or columns in the table (see "Selecting table elements" on page 121).
