I eventually spoke to HP Support and they told me to go into the Options of HP ProtectTools Security Manager, where you can switch off the automatic capture.

Yeah, I think that's what finally worked, but not until I restarted the computer, which I had forgotten to do! Thanks!

Sue-

In word you can import another document-- can you do that in word perfect?

I believe that Sue should be able to import a file into her WP document. I seem to recall doing that back when I had word perfect.

Import or insert - I think you should see if you can insert a file into the document you want it. As you would if you were adding an image to the document.

Does anyone know how to copy and paste a bunch of small tables in word perfect at once?

Have you tried "Select all" and then used Control C to copy rather than the copy command? Inexplicably, Control C sometimes copies differently. Or, taking Vortex's idea a little further, can you convert table to text separated by tabs, then do the opposite in the new document?

I read an article once about the Cray supercomputers in which they interviewed one of the users about the speed. He said, "At first, it was 'Oh, shit, that's fast,' but after a few weeks, I was going 'Come on, come on."

I am not trying to import a file, just several tables from one document and I can't see a way to do it.

CTRL-A seems to only copy the text, not the table formatting.

Thanks for all the advice. I've managed to copy and paste them all one by one. I only cried when WP crashed twice.

I'll have to revisit this when I am not so pressed for time.

Sue, maybe next time, delete all the extraneous information around the table, so that all that's left in the original document is the table, save it with a new name, and then import that document into the one where you want the table. (What sumi said, but with a little more detail.)

I think that ought to work, though it's been a long time since I used WP.

That reminds me.

Drew, do you still have Kristin's dead Macbook to send? I'll pay postage.

Petabyte!

Looks like Alltel is dropping our internet coverage (tethering the phone to the laptop) because they don't have a roaming contract in place for data. Which makes some sense. I'm on the phone for minutes, but online for hours.

So now I'm looking for wireless mobile internet connectivity via either tethering or a card, that does have unlimited online capability and unlimited roaming, with pretty extensive coverage, particularly in the sparse West. Anyone else logging on this way?

Probably not, I suppose, but we've really loved the ability to get online in a moving vehicle, anywhere we go. And we can't really get any other connection at home other than paying a whack of a lot for satellite, which is definitely not mobile.

Liese, I have a Verizon card, which I use for work. It's fine, most places...but I'm almost always in cities, not in the sparse West. I have no idea how the coverage is, there. Sprint has them too. I only pay something like $45 a month, but it's with a corporate contract. You might be able to get some sort of deal if you get your cellphones through them too, or something.
