Bob,
Thanks for explaining the process. After highlighting the copy one can
press Ctrl-B to capture the copy and use Ctrl-V to paste it somewhere. The
process we've described will help members who still laboriously transfer
information to their files by transcription rather that highlight-and-paste.
I didn't think to add directions on the web, but you've explained it well
for those who are in a learning curve. The same process applies to
accessing the website URL first given with the book query: use Ctrl-B to
highlight and capture the address and, placing the pointer on the address
bar at the top of the server page, press Ctrl-V to paste it and then press
the 'Go' arrow.
Cheers,
Gary in Berkeley
