OK, solved this one - the function I wanted was "snapping". Next
question: suppose I have a block (i.e a section of a waveform) in the
multitrack window. Is there a way of adjusting the beginning or end of
the block? For example, if the block begins a second later than I
decide I want, can I shift the start point to include the missing
second from the original waveform?

Hope this makes sense.

Sure. Delete the block in multitrack. Go to the original file. Remark
the
block with new in and out points and re-insert it in the multitrack. Or,
always put segments of a file into the multi-track with plenty of pad on
each end, then use the envelope to mute what you don't want.

From this answer I guess you're still using Cool Edit Pro version 1.
Version 2 upwards allow you to simply drag the end of the block to change
the start or end point. The mouse pointer will show two vertical lines
when you've got it over the appropriate place to do this.

Cheers.
