When you need to copy cells in Excel, an alternative to the traditional copy and paste route is to use drag and drop. Select the cells that you want to copy and release the mouse button. Then move the cursor to any edge of the selected region (the cursor will change to a white arrow), hold down the control key and click and hold the mouse button. Drag the cells to the desired location and release the mouse button.
