Dave,
My issue is with CTRL-F to find/search. After doing the copy/paste, the CTRL-F scenario populates the find string with the copy/pasted text AND checks the box "Restrict Search to Selection".
All of this occurs w/out having ANY text marked or selected in the second source member.
So you can see how difficult it is to describe this type of thing in an email. That's why I get so frustrated when support people rely on it 100% - no phone call, etc. It simply wastes an enormous amount of time. This could all be prevented with a single 5 minute phone call.
(off my soapbox for now).
Greg

Dave - After the CTRL-C to copy from member 1, you need to paste the
copied source into member 2 (I am copying and pasting entire lines of
source)
Yes, I was able to do that. The only thing I couldn't figure out is how the Find popup dialog figures into your scenario. It didn't sound like you were actually doing a search at all. You Ctrl-C in one tab and then Ctrl-V in another tab. That always works for me. What doesn't work for me is the correct setting of the "Restrict search to selection"
checkbox -- but this only affects when I am actually trying to do a search or a search/replace. This hasn't stopped me from doing Ctrl-V while the Find popup dialog is closed. In your case I know you said the Ctrl-V wasn't working but I don't see how that is related to the Find popup dialog. Perhaps you could explain your situation further so that I
understand. ;-)
Sincerely,
Dave Clark
