I would like to have some means of selecting a customer and have the selection (F-key, Subfile option, whatever) fill the copy/paste so that that name & address can then be pasted in the predefined format into a PC screen.

Not quite sure what you are asking, but I'll answer on what you might. If you use iSeries Access emulation, you can modify the keyboard mapping to reproduce typical Windows shortcuts.

Map the Ctrl option of the C key to be [edit-copy]
Map Ctrl V to be [edit-paste]

Then, you just drag the screen to select the data you want to copy, Ctrl-C and then paste it to the PC.
