Evan, another way to do one at a time, is to get the free add-on called send to power toys (for vista). it has an option under the context menu's "send to" choice, which will send the name to the clipboard (this is the full name including the path). Unfortunately it adds quote marks if the name contains a space, and you don't always want that, but still it's better than nothing. hth,

I want to be able to copy just filenames, not the actual files, to the clipboard for pasting into an e-mail or for pasting into a text file. I haven't needed this function before and did a Google search to find out what the keyboard command is to do that. From the searches I did, it seems that I need to download additional software to get this capability. Is this correct? If so, does anyone know what I should get that would be accessible, preferably not too expensive? It seems hard to believe that this isn't built into Windows. Maybe I just didn't search properly. Anyone got any advice? Thanks much. Evan If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
