One inelegant solution: Do a HyperSearch use the "Write HyperSearch Results" macro (which slaps it into a new buffer) select what you want in the clipboard and C+x The long way around, but it'll get it there. Of course once you have it in a buffer, you can do anything with it. Jeff |

Another editor I use (UltraEdit) does this. I do a search and get a dialog listing all hits just like HyperSearch. Then it has a button to copy the results to the clipboard. I just used it in a long stored proc I'd inherited. It was creating temp tables right and left. I copied the guts of the proc script to execute it, but I couldn't re-execute it because none of the temp tables were being dropped. So I did a search on "CREATE TABLE #TEMPx" and copied the results to the clipboard. Then I pasted the results at the bottom of the script and did a replace CREATE with DROP. Worked great. Chris |

(now if I could only find that grilled tofu sandwich macro...) Chris |

Of course once you have it > in a buffer, you can do anything with it. Of course, you can write a new macro, based on 'write hypersearch results', which copies the results to a StringBuffer object (instead of a new file) and puts it in the clipboard using Registers.setRegister('$',<text>).
