I sure am glad you found a way of doing a multiple cell copy paste. Works in the Internet cluster and DX info windows also. Maybe one day DXBase will follow the Windows standard way of using a mouse to cope/paste. Thanks for the tip.

I've tried to copy using normal copy/paste with little success. Today I stumbled upon a way of doing it. 08-27-2004 20:07 9A2F 599 599 17 CW 18085.00 08-27-2004 20:10 EO60FO/A 599 599 17 CW 18087.50 08-27-2004 20:28 SY2004KF 599 599 15 CW 21034 08-27-2004 21:02 ON7GB 599 599 30 RTTY 10141.29 08-27-2004 21:38 EO60FO/A 599 599 20 CW 14037.80 08-27-2004 23:51 FM/F5CVI 599 599 30 RTTY 10142.20 Basically I can't do a whole log line. I've tried highlighting by clicking on the first little column field to no avail. What I did find was: My first coloumn with data is the date. Put the cursor in the first field you want to start with hold down shift and put the cursor if the first field AFTER the last field you want to copy. This will highlight those fields but obviously the a right click does not bring up the copy/paste/etc menu. Instead: Use Control C to turn on the copy command and then in Notepad or Email window, a normal Paste or Control V will work. You guys probably all know this...I've been using DXB for quite a while and finally figured this out. ----------------------------------------------------- "Trying to establish voice contact - please yell into keyboard." ----------------------------------------------------- W9OL, Bill H. in Chicagoland ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected]
