Without Shift, you would end up with A_CBEF or A_CDBF unless you inserted a blank cell between D&E first.


It's the equivalent of OO's Paste Special with cells shifted, but with OO you have to do it thru the Edit > Paste Special > Shift Cells dialogue.
I know of no shortcut key or mouse shortcut to do it in as few keystrokes as Excel.


Unfortunately, Calc 2.0 (m72) does not have this capability either.  Darn.

I use SHIFT dragging a lot and this is an important issue for many people. Has anyone submitted a enhancement request before 2.0 comes out? Let's vote on it.

One other nice touch Excel does is that it shows you the position you're dragging the block to it.

As far as I can tell, in OOo you can't even drag a column at all.
