I am on RDP 8.0 and there is no copy and paste functionality. Ain't working.

And it would be really nice if Rational would add "Copy to clipboard" and "Print" to that view. Even RPG Next Gen Editor can print the search results so it can't be too hard to do that. (I never (paper) print the search results but I like/need to make a PDF copy of the search result.)

Bryce,
The printed output of the list of members found is useful in a number of ways.
Without the printed output, you can not get a list of members matching your
search criteria.
This output can then be used to construct a filter in RDp for work on the
members, or just as a reference to where your search criteria is used.

Using RDp, you can not copy the list of members generated from a search.
Also, when searching a single source file to obtain a list of members matching
your search, PDM is much faster than RDp.

Technically you can but it's a pain. You have to collapse every one of
your searches (you can do this with keystrokes: select the top one, then
left-arrow, down-arrow, left-arrow, down-arrow, repeat until done).
Then, select the whole list and copy. You'll end up with a list in your
clipboard that looks like this:

AP0001.rpg
AP0002.rpgle
AP1010C.clp

And so on.

NOT a good answer, but it's at least something.
