Gratuitous WordPerfect Griping

There has got to be a better way of cutting and pasting paragraphs across multiple pages in a document. Am I the only one on the planet who spends ten minutes zooming back and forth across the page to which I want to transfer something before I finally get the @#$*(&#(* cursor to stop where I want it?

Use the Bookmark feature under the Tools menu. Go to where you want the mark to be set, and click on Set Quick Mark. Go back to where the text is coming from and set another mark. You can now use the Go To command in the Bookmark box to move between the marks easily, no cursor scrolling needed.

Lumps beat me to it. Quick marks are your friend, here. And don't be trashing WP. Nothing beats "reveal codes". Nothing.
