Re: Windows copy append

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

That is not what Bryan meant - Copy Append is an extra option in the 
Edit menu of iSeries Access - as well as Paste Next. Copy Append takes 
what you are copying and appends it to the end of what is on the 
clipboard. Very cool for copying multi-screen stuff like source or help 
text or whatever. Paste Next is the reverse - it starts pasting from 
where you left off - nice for pasting long source.

Of course, it's much easier in WDSC/RDi - where you don't deal with 
multi-screens - you can copy and paste the whole thing. There's probably 
not a reason for this feature in Windows apps other then the emulator.
