OT: Pasting in Windows 7 from the clipboard??
Hiya,
I was able to figure this out in Vista but I'm totally brain farted here, I can't remember what I did in order to allow pasting from the Clipboard in Windows 7!
I use Hamsins Clipboard app, it's wonderful, been using it since Windows 98 I think! You can find it here: Hamsin (unpack it and store it some place where it can do it's thing, I keep my Hamsins Clipboard folder in My Documents, works just fine.)
So I have the HCB icon enabled in the notifications area and set to always show. I have it filled up with "Favorites" that I use all the time. In Vista when I had a password or something I needed pasted I would click in the password box on the online page and then go to the HCB icon, click it and up would come the long list of text to choose from. Click on what you want and it would fill that area of the form page with that text.
Now what's happening in Win 7 is that the form page area I want to paste into becomes deselected and nothing happens when I click on a text item to paste from HCB! I think there is a system setting that allows this but can't remember! Can't get this to work in note pad nor Edit Pad Pro (which is my default text pad). So it's not just NOT working for online forms, it's system wide.
If I figure this out I swear it's one more thing I need to make a note of and store it in the HCB folder so I'm not driving myself crazy with this kind of stuff!
Thanks for the help if there is help to be had!
