What are you copying and pasting from and to ??

You should be able to cut and paste to any entry screen, that's a standard Windows function.

Should work as long as you're cutting and pasting one line at a time, and the member info page should be open for editing/change.

If you're trying to bring up a 'right mouse' menu to select copy/paste, its not going to work. You have to use the Keyboard Shortcuts:

CTRL-C : Copy
CTRL-V : Paste

Just tested it .. works like a charm.

thanks , CTRL's will work it has been years sence i have used them and i had forgot to try it.
There is no way to turn on right click, It sure is easyer ?

Is there a way to search on first name only, or do I have to start a new subject

You can't turn them on in the program ...

As far as searching, you can't do a normal search, but if you click on the Locate button, then click on the column header for First Name and start typing the name, you'll bring up all the Susan's or John's, from there you can go through the list.
