please keep in mind that I can not cut and paste. You can now. It's simple. Even I can do it... There are a few different ways but I'll tell you the way I do it. If I want to cut and paste a location or a link: Put your mouse pointer arrow in that little white bar located above that has the address. (It usually starts with http://) When your arrow is in that long white box, press the left mouse button one time. This will cause all the letters or words in that box to be highlighted blue. Then simply click again using the other mouse button on the right side of your mouse. This will bring up a little box that says "Undo, Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete", etc. Click your mouse on "Copy". Your computer remembers what it just copied and stores it in it's memory. Now all you have to do is find a place to "Paste" it. You can left button-click somewhere in your reply box and the little cursor will begin to blink. Then click once again with your right button to bring up that little box again. This time select "Paste". Like magic you will see everything you highlighted. If you want to copy something from a page like a word, sentence, paragraph, etc. that is simple too. Place your mouse pointer over the 1st letter and click with the left mouse button and keep the button held down. Then scroll your mouse over or down to where you want the highlighting to stop. Everything you want will now be highlighted in blue. Take you finger off the left button now. Then click on the right button and the little box pops up again. Press copy. Find a spot to put all this good information and click with your left button. Then click with your right button and press paste. Wa-lah!!! Presto-change-o. It's all there... Try it. You will like it. It sure cuts down on typing... <g> -Clappy P.S. After typing all this out, I sure hope that the reason why you can't cut and paste is NOT because your mouse is broken or something silly like that... You might be a computer wiz or something but something isn't working correctly... I was just assuming you haven't learned this technique yet... Good luck.
