I have the same problem when trying to paste to a command line in the console, except there you can't get Ctrl+V to work at all. Greg Not unnecessarily complicated at all, just a universal way of getting it done when middle mouse wheel and <crtl v> doesn't work. I tend to use a lot of plain very brief text files, it's good for me to be able to drop a plain text file onto a page, modify it for presentation but keep the original. Roger
