[RWP] Can anyone help?

[David]

Unfortunately I still can't quite get my head around how you achieve certain actions in reaper, so if anyone can answer some very basic questions for me I will be very grateful and thanks in advance for your help.
1  How do you select a portion of audio material on a given track and then nudge it to the left or right?
2  How can you listen to the audio you have selected in order to hear what you have done?
I really need to have the ability to deal with audio as one can in Sonar and sound forge.
