Walt 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. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

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. -- 73, Cecil, http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |

There is no 'edit' or 'paste' button in the 'new text' screen. Walt |

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. :-) -- 73, Cecil, http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
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 Walter Maxwell wrote: On Thu, 22 Sep 2005 12:47:48 -0400, Walter Maxwell wrote: Can someone please tell me how to 'paste' a copy of text into the 'text' portion of a new message?

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-- Jim NN7K Cecil Moore wrote: Walter Maxwell wrote: My copy is ASCII, which appeared in the starting msg of this thread.
