# Messages Editor: Cut, Copy, and Paste

Just as in other Windows applications, the Windows Clipboard can be used to quickly move and create copies in Vehicle Spy. [Messages Editor](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-spy-networks/message-editor.md) view allows you to cut, copy, and paste messages in the spreadsheet.\
\
These operations can also be completed using the Messages Editor [right click menu](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-spy-networks/message-editor/messages-editor-right-click-menu.md).\
\
Tip #1: Press/hold the **Shift key + left click** to select a group of messages to be cut or copied.\
\
Tip #2: Cut, copy, and paste messages from one [Network](/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-spy-networks/networks.md) to another. This is useful for rearranging or changing your network objects. It is also useful for moving receive messages to the transmit table.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intrepidcs.com/vspy-3-documentation/vehicle-spy-main-menus/main-menu-spy-networks/message-editor/messages-editor-cut-copy-and-paste.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
