I did it, but I couldn't remember it long enough to write it.     Toci
Don't you know how to copy and paste?
nope.     Toci

   If you're on web TV or something, I guess you're
screwed, but if you're using windows, go to the
location from which you want to copy text, and
press control-A to highlight all text then press
control-C to copy it all to the "clipboard" (a
small temporary memory set-aside by WINDOWS
for this purpose).

  Then switch to where you want to empty the
"clipboard" contents into, such as a posting
you're writing for this group, or WORD or
NOTEPAD.  Put the cursor where you
want to put the clipboard contents, to
appear, then press control-V to dump the
contents of the "clipboard" at the location
where your cursor is positioned.

   You can copy just selected text, rather
than ALL the text, into the "clipboard" by
putting the cursor where you want to start,
then holding down the left mouse button
while you "drag" the cursor to where you
want to end (while watching the stuff you
want get highlighted as you do that).
When you've highlighted what you want,
release the mouse button and then press
control-C to copy the highlighted text into
the "clipboard".

Why not just left mouse, highlight the desired text, right click to copy,
then go to a Word page and .........................paste ?- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

I tried it. It's too complicated. Besides, you don't want to read
what I might copy. Toci (I don't know how to do a smily,
either.) T
