Hi Rich,

Try using the keyboard command of:

Ctrl C to copy
Ctrl V to paste

It should work

I'm still using 2002 and i just noticed this same thing. I end up keeping my browser online and open...browse to the url, click back to fp and the url is automatically inserted. It works, but cut and paste doesn't.

Thanks guys,

I just sent e-mail to Microsoft asking about this very
same problem. I used to be able to do a right-click
copy/paste using FP98; I don't understand why this
functionality is not there in FP2003 and was wondering if
I had to enable some setting in my Options. Is anyone
aware of a way to enable the right-click functionality?
Thanks.

Fred

p.s. I'll post whatever reply I get from Microsoft.

The ability to right click and paste links has not been available since
FP2002. It's by design, and we don't know why.

I miss this (what should seem simple) feature, too, and am mystified by it's
absence.

The functionality is gone, since FP now uses the common Office dialogs.
