1) Touch and hold the text
2) Touch Select word or Select all in the menu that opens.The selected text is highlighted in orange, with a tab at each end of the selection.
3) Drag either selection tab to expand or reduce the range of selected text.
If you change your mind, you can unselect the text by touching unselected text in
the same or in another text field, or press the Back button.
4) Touch Cut or Copy in the Edit Text menu. Cut or copy the text to paste.
5) Place the cursor in the text field where you want to paste the text, or select text
you want to replace by pasting.
6)Touch Paste in the menu that opens.

If you are interested, there's more info in this Android 2.3.4 manual.

If you're in a note taking/email/etc. type app, you can also use the editing palette with the Swype keyboard. Swipe from the Swype key to the adjacent symbol key to access the editing palette, which will let you move the cursor, select text, copy, pate, etc.
