You can try a couple of different things: 1. If you highlight the text that you want to copy (for instance the text from the e-mail that you sent us), and then go to Gedit and press the middle mouse button (or both the left and right together on a two-button mouse) then it will paste. NOTE: With this method there is no need to right-click on the highlighted portion and choose "copy" and then right-click in the document and choose "paste" 2. Highlight the text that you want to copy (for instance the text from the e-mail that you sent us) then press CTRL-C, and go to StarOffice and press CTRL-V. The text you highlighted should be pasted into the new StarOffice document. Hopefully this was helpful. If you have any further questions or concerns please feel free to reply to this e-mail or to e-mail us at evolution ximian com -------------------- Pete Goodall Support Tech Ximian, Inc. pete ximian com On Wed, 2001-10-10 at 16:16, ZekeVarg wrote:
First of all I would like to say that evo is a great program but it seems like copy and paste won't work with external programs for me. I can copy from one email to another with out any problems, but I can't copy a pice of a email and paste it into for example openoffice or abi, but I can copy from a external program and paste it into evo.
