I work with Microsoft EXCEL everyday. I receive file and frequently I have
to cut and paste to a new file and I have no idea how to do this. Can you
help....
 
I assume you mean Copy and Paste. It's simply a matter of selecting the
range to copy (paint it out by dragging over the range with the mouse or
using the arrow keys with the Shift key down) and doing an Edit, Copy (or
Ctrl-c as a shortcut). Then select the first cell in the destination
workbook and worksheet and press Enter. You can move with one workbook to
another using the Window menu or the shortcut key Ctrl-Tab.

There is probably more to your question than you have not told us.

Provide more detail and a tailored solution may be offered.

Basics for cut and paste.

With received file open.........

File>New>Blank Workbook.

Switch to received file.

Select a range of cells and Edit>Cut(or copy).

Switch to new workbook.

Select a cell and Edit>Paste. Save the new workbook.
