Copying and pasting information into comments

Use the and icons to copy and paste comments from one student record to another. Comments can be copied from any Topic Comment or Overall Comment field to any other comment field.
Note: Check your organisation's policy; some organisations do not allow staff to copy information between student records.
Note: The SynWeb copy and paste facility does not use the clipboard of your PC or Mac, so you can only copy and paste comments between students. If you use Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to copy and paste comments, student names and pronouns are not corrected when the comment is pasted.
