What is the difference between dragging text with the mouse (left-click) and Ctrl + dragging text in MS Word 365?

Correct option is B

The correct answer is:(B) Dragging moves the text; Ctrl + dragging copies it.

Explanation:

• Dragging text with the mouse moves it from one location to another in the document.

• Ctrl + dragging the text, on the other hand, creates a copy of the text at the new location while retaining the original text at its original position.

Information Booster:
• Ctrl + dragging is a quick method to duplicate text without using the clipboard or copy-paste functions.
• The drag-and-drop feature is commonly used for rearranging content in a document.
• This function helps users manage documents efficiently, particularly when editing or reorganizing large amounts of text.
• In MS Word, the Ctrl key is often used for copy, while Shift is used for selection and other formatting shortcuts.
• Word 365 supports both options, making document editing faster and more flexible.
