Editing Shortcuts

These keyboard shortcuts are designed to help with editing actions and functions.

Note: Where the key combination is different in the web client, that combination is given in parentheses ( ). Where there is no equivalent key combination in the web client, it is indicated by (n/a). Otherwise, the key combination is the same in both the Windows client and the web client.
Action Keys Description
Undo an editing operation. Ctrl+Z Works only for editing operations (cut/copy/paste). There is no multiple undo, and you can only undo the operation while you are still in the field where you performed it. Once you move out of the field, this shortcut no longer works. To undo changes made after you move out of the field, use Ctrl+F5.
Cut text from a field. Ctrl+X As is common in most Windows programs, removes selected text from a field, but keeps a copy of it on the system clipboard. This allows you to paste the deleted text somewhere else.
Copy text from a field or contents of grid cells. Ctrl+C

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.

Note:  If you are copying groups of cells within a grid and the last-selected cell is an editable field, this menu option and keyboard shortcut do not work. Instead, you must use the Ctrl + Insert key combination to copy the selected cells to the system clipboard.
Paste text into a field. Ctrl+V

As is common in most Windows programs, pastes the contents of the system clipboard into the field where the cursor is.

You can use this option only in fields that allow you to enter text.
