David,
I think I have a possible answer, but can not yet repeat your code and see
what is actually does as a start. Can you share the showModal macro and any
other dependencies please?.
Also when you say "I can write a line in Clipboard", could you share more,
because I think there may be further automation and simplification possible.
Thanks
Tones
