How do I move cells in Excel?

Instant Insert

Insert new cells and paste data in a single step. When copying and moving cells, select the range of cells you want to move, point with your mouse to the border of the selection, and hold down the Ctrl key as you drag the range to the location. When you release the mouse button, Excel copies the cells to the destination. To insert data at the destination, press and hold the Shift and Ctrl keys as you drag your selection; existing cells are shifted down or right.
