Title: cannot copy and paste
Post by: chinokinet on July 07, 2004, 04:56:26 AM

When I copy something from the net and try to paste it onto a word document, it doesnt let me paste it because the paste icon isn't active.

And when i tried to copy something from a word document to a word document, paste icon was active but when i tried to paste, it didn't do that much and the paste thing only lasts for one thing.

What can I do?

You've managed to confuse me but I use ctrl c (copy) and ctrl v (paste) instead of the menue items.

Hi Chinokinet,

when u want to copy form the net, you need to highlight the text/picture with your mouse, then ctl c or right click and copy.
only when u can see "copy" after u highlight and right click, then you can paste.

alternatively, you can open that webpage, press the 'PrintScreen' button on the top right corner of your keyboard and paste in your word doc.
