     Yes.

I'm 'copying' from internet (web pages, mail, etc.) using the mouse and CTRL 
C 
- CTRLSHIFT GREY+ won't work for this.  I have gotten into the habit of using 
ESC C A to paste the contents of the buffer into a TSE document - and perhaps 
the ESC is doing me in.  I'll try using CTRLSHIFT GREY* this evening. (Don't 
have w-95 at work).

     I've been using ESC C A from the drop down menu.

     Considered it - but I do so little programming that I didn't think the 
     download time and disk space were worth it.  Will wait on the next 
     upgrade and get it then.  
     
     FWIW, my project involves building a function whereby I can copy URLs 
     and Web Page titles into a TSE document, add comments, format the 
     results by adding delimiters, then importing the results into a dBase 
     III database.  Doing the input manually via alt tab is tiresome.  
     
     PS: Please don't tell me to get Access or Excel - they cost too damn 
     much and have WAY too much overhead for what I'm doing.
