COPY + PASTE

Tinkerer · 02-01-2002, 11:09 PM

Instead of typing out the entire link address for a picture or other. I put the link in MY DOCUMENTS and tried to copy and paste to the boards but the computer wont let me.Is there some way to do it that I don't know about?

When you want to post a link here, open a new window that has what you want. Then you go to the page where what you want is (or have it up), left click the address once (to highlight it), then push the control key and the letter "c" at the same time. Then go back to the window where you want to put it, click once where you want it (so you have the little blinking line) and push the control key and the letter "v" at the same time. That puts the link in the text of the message, then when you add the post, it will become a link.

I go to screen I want them to see and highlight the address bar, right click to copy, then come down to where I want to post it right click again to post...there is probably an easier way but thats the only way I know..

TinkerBoater, Your wife is right, Hell is about 15 miles or so from here. I haven't been through there for a couple years though. Where is Hardy Pond? We usually are at Houghton lake or Grand Haven.
