Copying Windows text into DOS program

[jentaylor728]

Hello !
Any help advice would be appreciated!

How can I copy text from a windows word processing document and paste it into a DOS program??

I'm sure it's probably not "do-able", but I'm so desperate, I had to ask!!

Thanks!

Hello,
Thanks for answering!  I have many different word processing programs-microsoft works (several versions), MSWord, Quark, etc.  I want to paste text into a highly specialized DOS program..it's written in FoxBase (I'm not sure what version)..

The text would be pasted within a program that is used for data entry.

Thanks so much!!!!
