Re: [libreoffice-users] Calc - how to move (drag-n-drop using mouse) or cut/insert rows/columns

Hi :)
I just tried out the various options (Ctrl, Alt, Shift combos) in
Excel 2010 and there really doesn't seem to be a way of dragging a
column into a new position.  It seems you have to cut or copy first.

It's possible i missed something or that the 1 machine i tried it on
might be weird somehow.

Chris is about to get on with the finances and is going to wonder why
i moved his cursor
Regards from
Tom :)
