Yes, you can copy attributes from the Attribute Table and paste into another program, like Microsoft Excel. In Surfer 16 and future versions, only adjacent rows and columns can be copied together.

To do this:

1. Select the cells you want to copy in the Attribute Table by pressing the mouse button down and dragging the cursor over the cells. The selected cells will turn dark blue.
2. With the mouse button still held down (and the cells still dark blue), press CTRL+C on the keyboard.
3. Release the mouse and then you can paste into the other program.
