Hello everyone,

I have a text file macro that I have set to activate via a button.  It 
worked fine on my previous PC, but now- using the same PowerPro (4.1- 
wow I did not realize I was that out of date, but I digress..)

This file also assumes I have a longer text file wvinweb.txt in the file 
on line 38
It also assumes that clip captured file is running in Power pro with the 
shown assignments of variables.  I use this to copy the name and the 
e-mail address for my script.

What is happening is that at

*clip textPaste &(a) and
*clip textPaste &(d)

Instead of pasting the variable text into the script, it copy's what is 
in the clipboard again.  The rest of the script seems to work fine.

I assume this is a syntax problem, but I can't seem to find it in the 
help file on how to correct this.

Any help would be appreciated, and I apologize if this is not a beginner 
question.

Ray
