Yes, you can. Double-click on the cell to switch to edit mode (or press
F2, for those preferring the keyboard), position cursor where you want
to add text, right-click (or Edit menu) > Paste. This also pastes as
unformatted, so you don't even need faff around changing the font if the
cell is already formatted as you want it.
click on cell where verification number will be appended to description
click on input line
go to Edit->Paste to paste verification number to cell data
press enter
empty cell with verification number only
If I've understood correctly, I think that routine could be:
- Pay credit card on line
- Copy verification number from web site
- Double-click on cell where verification number will be appended to
description (or click in the input line if you prefer, but then you have
to use Edit > Paste since there is no right-click menu)
- Position cursor at the end of the existing content (or wherever you
want it)
- Right click and paste
I agree-it's not a big deal-there are more important issues.
Thanks to all,
John
Excellent. Learned a new LO feature. By the way, when I copied the
text that was in a different font, it converted to the font in the
edited cell, a win-win.
Thanks,
John
