Hi,

Is it possible to copy and past a string from a program Windows to a field in a running RMcobol program ? 

Example : I have a name on a page of a word processor, I select it and use ctrl+c, I recall my cobol program and I select ctr+v on the input field of my cobol program.......

Someone tried it or there is a way to do it ?

The RM/COBOL control menu can be accessed by clicking the program icon in the top-left corner of the runtime window. And, you can use the "Paste" command from the RM/COBOL control menu to paste text from the Windows Clipboard to the currently running RM/COBOL program through the COBOL ACCEPT statement.

**For more information in regards to the RM/COBOL control menu, or the "Paste" functionality, please see page 113 of the RM/COBOL v12.18 User's Guide:
