Sorry, All, I haven't yet learned how to paste text into the text

Hi Walt,

Using the mouse, hi-light the text of interest and on the keyboard
press the two keys (at the same time) ctrl C. This copies the text
to the clipboard. Then, in your open, new post, place the mouse
cursor where you want the quote (click the mouse to put the cursor
there). Then on the keyboard press the two keys (at the same time)
ctrl V. This will transfer the contents of the clipboard into the
text area.

Hi Walt,
Is the "copy of text" an ASCII text section or a graphic
of some sort? For graphic text, some of us use OCR software
as graphics (binaries) are not allowed on this newsgroup.

Thanks, Richard, I knew how to get the text onto the clipboard, but I didn't
know that ctrl V would 'paste' it into the text portion. There is no 'edit' or
'paste' button in the 'new text' screen.

Hi Cecil,

My copy is ASCII, which appeared in the starting msg of this thread. I composed
in Word, and my older Word programs allowed one to convert to plain text with CR
at the end of each line. The 2003 ver doesn't allow that, and the lines run to
256 characters per line, which my first post on the thread did. But Richard C.
just informed me how to paste when there is no 'paste' button available. I'm
going to post my msg again, and we'll see whether its lines end correctly, or
with 256 characters per line.

I have my browser set for screen wrap so I don't even
notice 256 characters per line. :-)

If you are WINDOWS based:

1) Highlight text in original message
2) Edit Key: select COPY option, Click mouse
This puts the desired text on your 'clipboard'
3) Open NEW MESSAGE
4) Put cursor in 'text' block [as opposed to Address or Subject]
5) Edit Key: select PASTE option, Click Mouse.

If you are MAC based you need info from another source

Thanks, ham op, for the info. However, 'Agent' has no 'edit' key, and no 'paste'
option, hence the reason for my question. However, Richard C. kindly told me
that using cont v does the pasting job.

Walt- once you have the item "Pasted", you can edit that "Pasted copy",
simply by single clicking anywhere in the sentence(s), and then type a
(space-bar, comma, period, or if editing the text, the letters, over
the highlighted area. IT is possible to thusly, edit lines, correct
sentences, contract the length of lines, ect. Hope this info helps--
