See this has nothing to do with Windows XP

But in general use of Windows, right click with your mouse in message body
and select paste.

Also you could use the Control+C and Control+V to copy and paste.

It's not a Gmail problem. Gmail depends upon the copy/paste built-in
functions of Windows.

I suggest you ask your question in a Windows-related group.

No, wait...

Just place your cursor in the message body and paste. Works for me.

What does GMAIL have to do with XP? NOTHING. Your post does not
belong HERE.

Also, try typing in ENGLISH.

Bad idea. Please begin a new thread in
microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion newsgroup about this problem.
