When we had all of the trouble with the computers, the girl showed me a how to copy things. When this happened once before, they recovered all of the files from the broken computers and put them all under a couple of icons on the screen. When I needed something out of the file, I had to go to the icon and open it and then find the file for use. However, this time she did a part of the recovery while I was watching, and I noticed she was taking the files from the icon on screen and copying them right into the area where I where I would want them. In fact she had both areas open on the screen at the same time, so I know that can be done, and actually found the key to do it, but lost it again.
The secret is in a right click of the mouse. I start by highlighting what I want to copy, then right click on it. A screen comes up with options, and I choose copy( left click). I minimize the screen I'm on and open up an area where I want the information to be, and right click again and the paste option comes up. Left click and everything is copied, even into an e-mail.
I'm still playing with this and I'm not sure how far I can go, and will still continue to play with it.
