"Press the Control key. It's in the lower left corner of the

Not mine! It is just to the left of the 'A' key, where God
intended the control key to live. (Who needs a Caps-Lock key for
frequent use, anyway?)

It says 'C T R L' on it.

Nope -- it is spelled out in full -- 'C o n t r o l'.

Now keep holding it down, and tap
the C key. Let up on the C key. Now let up on the Control key. Now
use the mouse and move the arrow where you want the text to go. Once
the arrow is there, stop moving the mouse....."

Not the way my system works. The Right button picks up the text,
the Middle button drops it (It would be left and middle, but I have set
my system up for left-handed mouse operation. :-)

Of course -- my system isn't a Microsoft one, for which I am
very thankful. :-)

Enjoy,
DoN.
