Before I bought a computer with VISTA I was able to copy and past almost anything from anyplace to my desktop or email. With VISTA I am unable to do that. Can you tell me if that is just the way it is with VISTA or is there some setting or other suggestion that can help me copy and paste. I REALLY miss that.

Thanks!

Should work just the same way, what are you doing and what happens when you try?

Nothing happens... the "paste" is grayed out.

I probably have answered this question one time for you, but I am new to this program and am still trying how to figure it out... sorry!

If paste is greyed, it could mean you don't have anything in the clipboard. Try using alternatives like Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+V to paste.
