EndFunc You highlight text and press "Pause" to copy it to clipboard. Pressing "Pause" again should toggle function and pastes the text. Works fine except that the text gets pasted twice. Why? PS: eventually I would like to use the middle button click instead of the "Pause" key to copy/paste. Can anyone help? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fmen 1 Posted October 10, 2006 Thank you both for the solutions. I'm going to get busy and work on the Middle Button Click function. Should be a nice timesaver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
