You might have to write this information for each census-related information that you add to gramps. This can become rather tiresome after a few records. To help you re-enter information, the tool '''Clipboard''' can be used to easily copy a reference from one record to another.

* To use this tool, you must click on the icon '''Clipboard''' in the icon bar above the main window gramps. You must now arrange your windows so you can see both dialog boxes. Once you have windows, you arrange to slide the reference of the list in the working area of '''Clipboard''', keeping the left mouse button pressed. ''Figure 4'' shows the drag in action.
