Not really. I just learnt by exploring all of its features, trying them out
and stuff. Here's another useful tip. Fed up of NotePad? Look no further
than the "Replace with MS NotePad" menu item, found under the help menu. If
you select yes in the confirm dialogue box, each time you open a file that
normally opens in NotePad, etc, NoteTab will open instead. Cool, eh?

Terrific. That did it. I'm glad you made sense of my mangled request.
I wonder if you or Dean have suggestions for how I can learn more about this
application, which seems to have a lot going for it. I'm finding its help
system less helpful than the company claims.

Ah! I think you mean the use as pasteboard feature? If so, open a document
or create a new one and on the document menu press enter on use as
pasteboard. Now, anything that you cut or copy will be captured and will be
inserted into your document. Neat feature I have to say. Hope that helps.

Thank you, Dean. At your suggestion, I've downloaded NoteTab Light and have
spent some time trying to understand the clipboard, which I think is what
you mean by pasteboard, but without much success.
Have you done one of your tutorials on this subject? Or is it possible, by
way of illustration, to give directions for the following steps:
1. Copy a series of email messages and paste them into the NoteTab
Clipboard, and then
2. Copy the clipboard contents to a document in another word processor.
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't experienced your problem, and, though I do sometimes use that
clipboard append feature, I also use NoteTab Lite and use its pasteboard
feature, which, once activated, acptures the text of whatever is copied to
the clipboard into a Notetab window for waving or other manipulation. A
possible work-around and another means of achieving the same end.

Hi, everyone.
This weekend I decided to consolidate a series of email messages into a
single word processing file. So, for the first time, I had a reason to use
the Windows key-c append function. I started out with control-c for the
first block of text and tried to append blocks of additional text with
Windows key-c. However, it didn't work. After several trial-and-error
attempts, I discovered that text appended only when I pressed Windows key-c
twice in succession. It worked this way even after I rebooted and made sure
my PC was otherwise shipshape.
No one on the list has described this behavior, which makes me worry that
the append function won't perform reliably on my system.
I'm using JAWS 8 and Windows XP.
Has anyone else had this experience? Any suggestions for what might be
causing or how to fix it?
Thanks.
