but keeps a copy of it on the system clipboard. This allows you to paste the
deleted text somewhere else. You can use this option to cut components in Design Mode and Web Designer. |

Copy component, text from a field, or contents of grid cells. |
As is common in most Windows programs, copies any selected text to the system clipboard. This allows you to paste the copied text somewhere else. You can use this option to copy components in Design Mode and Web Designer. Note: If you are copying groups
