Just got a new laptop, has windows 8.

I can copy/paste most things as usual with the right mouse button click, but one thing I am having trouble with is in the VPB, when I make a print friendly text I can drag and highlight it all blue but I can not get anything from right click (no options, mainly "copy")

Anyone familiar with Windows8 and can tell me a work around?

had too though, old laptop crashed 10 days ago, and phone dumped on me some time between Sat night and Sunday morn.

Sucked cuz everything on phone was backed up on the computer that crashed 10 days prior


anyways, thanks for the help Fokker, CTRL+C did the trick

How old are you, Bane? Most people don't even know you can right click to copy these days.

Seems easier to right click, maybe cause that's what I'm used to

Windows 8 seems alright , only had it for like 20 hours now though. One thing I dislike about it, when ever I mouse over to drag the scroll bar down , most times it pulls out the tool bar and time, causing me another click to make that go away.

Third mouse wheel for desktops, touch screens for tablets, scroll wheel or right side of touch/tap surface on laptops.

Don't forget the arrow keys on a keyboard.
