Emacs should load that file automatically. If you're already running an Emacs session and don't want to quit, just `M-x load-file RET ~/.emacs'.
Now, I know why you want the usual Cut and Paste keys. I'd, however, prefer the Emacs way of doing things.
There's a possibility I might have missed a preference here or there but this page should be of help: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CuaMode

Thanks Yesudeep for all the help. Learning emacs and orgmode would have been a bit time consuming. Will try the software later sometime-- emacs is very very powerful but it needs time to learn/master.
I had to change some preferences in notecase and the lost edits/changes problem has been resolved. So its easier to stick to a tried and tested software that one is familiar with.
