1) Go to the document you want to copy from
2) Highlight with the cursor the text you want to copy
3) Right click your mouse, then from the pop-up menu select "Copy"
3 a) Alternatively, when you have highlighted your text, on your keyboard press CTRL + C
4) Go to the part of the webpage you want to paste into(assuming it's an input area that you want to paste to - you can't just drop stuff anywhere)
5) Ensuring your cursor is blinking in the input box, right-click and select "Paste"(or on the keyboard CTRL+V)
Your text will be pasted in.

You can also use the instructions from Speedster to copy and paste things in Word and Excel.
