It is really quite easy, and the procedure is consistent for any number 
of cells, 1 or more.

For multiple cells, click into the first cell and drag the mouse to 
select (highlight) a block of cells, releasing the mouse at the end of 
the selection. Now click the mouse on the selected block and drag it to 
the new location.

For 1 cell, click into the cell and drag the mouse out of the cell and 
back to select (highlight) that cell, releasing the mouse at the end of 
the selection. Now click the mouse on the selected cell and drag it to 
the new location.
