2.10.6.1 Dialog Buttons

Dialogs usually include standard buttons such as Ok and X. Some buttons have a standard keypress equivalent:

Usually, you can click on the OK button or press the Enter key if you want to save information and remove the dialog.

Click on the Cancel button, the X button, or press the Esc key if you want to close the dialog without saving the information.

For dialogs that ask a question, you can click on the Yes button or press the Y key for ‘yes’. Click on the No button, press the N key, or press the Esc key for ‘no’.

2.10.7 Copying Information Between Programs

You can insert information created in one program into a different program. For example, you may want to compose text in Wordpad before copying it into an e-mail message in the Inbox. If you try to insert an object into a program that is not designed to handle that type of object, you will be unable to Paste. Trying to copy a file from Windows Explorer into a Wordpad document will not work because Wordpad will keep the Paste option greyed out until it detects that text is ready to be pasted.
