bdmowers Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I used to be be able to copy text from Word or websites, etc. into messages posts here but can no longer. The old "Ctrl-V" just doesn`t happen. Any suggestions? I`m using Windows 8.1 on my laptop. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 All programs that deal with any text have a Copy and Paste function under the Edit menu at the top, so if your keyboard commands aren't working, they will. However, if your keyboard commands aren't working, there is something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdmowers Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 CG, when I copy from Word then use the "paste from Word" function here, the text does not appear. Any ideas? I can copy and paste anywhere else on the web and from any program, just not on the webboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 "Paste from Word" is an odd duck. Avoid it and just use Copy (Ctrl C) and Paste (Ctrl V), or the equivalent menu selection under File. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdmowers Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Is there a File choice here in Reply? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 At the top of your browser, yes, whether it's Internet Explorer or Firefox... Chrome likes to hide that.one, though, so you are forced to use Ctrl-C-V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
