how can Paint restrict on paste?

[mpysr]

Using Paint on older MS o/s (w98, w2k) if I have something on the
clipboard that's larger than the current canvas in Paint, on paste I
would get the query "Would you like the bitmap enlarged?" - and often
I would say NO, taking advantage of the crop-like capability of
Paint. I can't get that functionality from Paint on XP (Paint version
5.1 blahblahblay Service Pack 3).

How can I get that functionality with Paint on XP?

After pasting click Image, Attributes, and then set it to what ever you
want to crop the image to.

Thanks! Not quite as easy as before, but a very welcome, none the
less.

I can do some work now on XP machines.
