    Hagershorn - 2010-06-06

    Hi.  Sorry to bother you all again.  In the "edit facts" for individuals the combo box gives 3 choices- edit, copy and delete.  Edit I understand, Delete I understand, Copy I understand, but where is the Paste which normally follows on from the Copy????  With a family of 13, putting the same residence in for all of them is a pain.  Does the copy work?  Can I paste in the whole residence record for all the family without having t type it all in?  I've searched the WIKI but can't find any reference to this.

    Thanks in advance.

    John H.

    The 'copied' fact/event is placed into a holding position with other fact/event selections, with a brief description and in most recent copied at the top of the selection list. Copy something, then look at the FACTS selection list at the bottom of the page. Click adjacent to it - you'll see a new ADD FROM CLIPBOARD function and simply click ADD. It used to retain 5 facts, but I know think it is as many as ten.

    I think I owe you at least half a dozen pints by now.

    Thanks Stephen
