You can select text and then drag and drop it in another ___location. You can drag and drop text:
From Object Explorer into the editor to create a query.
From one ___location to a different ___location in the current editor.
Between editors.
To the Microsoft Windows Recycle Bin.
Drag and drop text
- Select the text you want to move, either with the mouse or with the keyboard.
- Select the highlighted text and continue holding down the mouse button.
- Move the mouse cursor to the destination where you want to place the text.
- Release the mouse button to drop the text.
Dragging text moves it; that is, the text is erased from the old ___location and moved to the new ___location. Pressing the Ctrl key while dragging text copies it to the new ___location. Dragging an object from Object Explorer is an exception and doesn't delete the object name from Object Explorer.
