- I would like to select multiple text items from a long document
- and paste them together in a new document. I can use the
- table option in Word5 and then the ouline view and begin
- juggling items to be together but it's very time consuming.
- Also the items are so disparate in size that the database
- approach either File Maker Pro or Works 3 is even more
- cumbersome. I want something quick. Drag and drop in Word 5
- is only OK for short lists and some of mine are pages long!
-
- Any ideas?
