Editing Comments, Instructions, and Expressions

To edit Comments, Expressions, and Instruction parameters, move the cursor
to the appropriate text and retype it. To delete an instruction when the cursor is
somewhere within the instruction, select Edit | Delete Instruction or press
<Shift> <Del>. An instruction or block of instructions can also be selected and
deleted with the delete key. The entire instruction must be selected or an error
message will be returned.

Cut, Copy, Paste, and Clipboard Options

Edit | Delete , Edit | Cut, Edit | Copy, and Edit | Paste allow sections of the
program to be deleted, moved, or copied to another area of the program or
between programs. Edit | Show Clipboard shows the contents of the clipboard.

You cannot move, copy, delete or comment out protected text
(Tables, Execution Intervals) or partial instructions. To move,
copy or delete an Instruction, the entire instruction, including all
of the parameters, must be selected.

NOTE

Cutting and pasting between datalogger programs should only be between
programs for the same datalogger type. Instructions and parameters may differ
between dataloggers. The compiler will catch many of these errors; however,
this may be at the expense of much time and confusion.
