Abstract

A method is provided for cutting and pasting text at a computing device. A user selects an area of text on a display of the computing device. The computing device expands the selected area of text to form an expanded area of text to make sure that no text that the user wanted to select is inadvertently omitted. The computing device associates a data label with a portion of the expanded area of text, and the computing device stores the data label and the associated portion of the expanded area of text, preferably within the clipboard of the computing device. When a user enters input text on the computing device, the computing device parses the input text to determine if a data label stored in the clipboard matches the input text. If there is a match, the computing device displays stored text associated with that data label within a popup window, for example. If a user chooses one of the items in the popup window, the data label is replaced by the portion of text that was chosen and matches the data label.
