Hi, Ken,
Thanks for the reply.
I have a program call CopyPath that if you right click on a folder or file
it will place the entire path to that fold or file to the clipboard. From
there, one is supposed to be able to copy the path from the clipboard to the
place one needs the path inserted. However, I cannot find a way to copy the
path once it is on the clip board. As I sy, there are copy and paste
features under EDIT that are grayed out. According to what I read under the
HELP menu, these should be functional once something is on the clipboard. Am
I reading this wrong? I mean, why would copy and paste be there (as well as
a toobar that seems to have these on them) if they do not work and aren't
supposed to be there? No one seems to be able to give me an answer to this
question.
If I am only looking at a 'viewer', where is the actual clipboard? There is
a window that is open that says 'Clipboard' and that has the text in it.
Still, read the HELP file associated with the 'viewer' or whatever it is and
I believe one will then understand my confusion. Here is what it states:
"When you cut or copy information from a program, it is moved to the
Clipboard and remains there until you clear the Clipboard or until you cut or
copy another piece of information. The Clipboard window in ClipBook Viewer
shows the contents of the Clipboard. YOU CAN PASTE THE INFORMATION FROM THE
CLIPBOARD INTO ANY FILE AS OFTEN AS YOU LIKE. However, the information is
only stored on the Clipboard temporarily."
To copy a ClipBook page to the Clipboard
1) In the Local ClipBook window, click the page you want to copy.
2) On the Edit menu, click Copy
To save the contents of the Clipboard to the local ClipBook
1) In ClipBook Viewer, click the Window menu, and then click LOCAL CLIPBOOK.
2) On the Edit menu, click Paste.
3) In the Page Name box, type a name for the ClipBook page.
4) To make this page available for others to use, select the Share Item Now
check box, and then click OK.
5) In the Share ClipBook Page dialog box, select the sharing options you
need.
The problem may be that there is no LOCAL CLIPBOARD option (as stated above
in the HELP instructions) shown under the WINDOW menu. Maybe if there was
then the copy and paste options would be available.
