How do I move a group of layout cells all at once?

I have a cluster of layout cells that furnish links to "offsite" services.
In designing the web page I often find I'd like to move the cluster, but I
have to move each layout cell individually (and there are 8 of them).

Is there a way to link the cells so they can be moved en masse?
 
Select the table, copy & paste it where you want...then you can go back and delete the original.

I believe you can Cut & Paste. When you grab data from cells, a cut does
not delete the table .... only the data. Then again, copy/paste can be
safer, but you always have the Undo command if you screw it up.

If you select the table first (from the drop down menu) everything comes with it. I suggested Copy Paste so Pablo doesn't lose anything on first try.

Thank you! This was my first web page with FrontPage. What I'd done was
make a layout table the size of the entire web page, then place cells here
and there. So as I learned a little more, and added a little more to the
page, I found myself needing to regularly move the cells. A drag to do one
at a time. Now I know to redesign the page with layout tables, putting the
cells inside these smaller work units, which will let me move the clusters
en masse anywhere easily.

Copying and pasting a table was a helpful heads up. Thanks.
 
Yer welcome.
