I just had a look at your settings and they seem fine DOUBLECAB.
Does it work if ......
using your mouse to highlight, then right click and select Copy, then click where you want to paste and then right click and select paste....???

If it still doesn't work, try doing it on another web page (not aussieveedubbers) and then on a different program (like Word)....
If they work fine... I'll talk to Andrew. 🙂

Hi Dodge.......some time ago on the "Sacred Cow" thread I copied and pasted from a folder on my computer the words of a Don Henley song.........from what I recall what I did then was go into the file folder on my computer that had the Don Henley file and double clicked my right mouse button which brought up a small menu where I clicked the 'copy' option and then I went to AVD and opened a new topic and clicked open the small menu and clicked on 'paste' which put it into the new AVD topic thread.
However this procedure does not currently work/respond unless I am doing something or not doing something I was doing before??

Heeeeeeeeeeelp:o

Hmmmm, are you sure you are still doing every step of that?? I can cut/copy and paste fine, following the steps that you mentioned there.

I know sometimes if you copy a section from somewhere and go off and do some other stuff on the computer and come back later to paste, it loses the stuff that you copied. Do you try and paste straight away after copying?
Does a menu actually appear with the option Paste, when you right click??

:o Yep tried about 5 times just then.

:o Yes
Does a menu actually appear with the option Paste, when you right click??

:o The small menu with all the options including paste appears but they are unable to be activated/used ..the only option that will activate is 'select all'....the other options are not high lighted as dark as the 'select all ' option.

Its got me beat because what I am trying to copy and paste to the AVD forum is a copy and paste compilation I put together on 'Word" (which copies and pastes fine)....... I also tried to copy a Notepad doc to AVD and it failed to work......thats why I asked whether the settings in my AVD config were out.
