Try highlighting from the other way (ie up to down if you did down to up) remember its copy not paste. Copy picks it up paste puts it down.

Left click on the start of the comment that you want, and holding the button down drag it all the way along what you want to copy, you will see it turn white. Right click and a box will appear with options in it, select 'copy'. Click the cursor in your new box, right click the mouse and you will see the word 'paste'. Left click, and there you are. Easy! (Now you'll have to teach me how to put all the 'faces' in the text....)

Instead of right clicking you can highlight and simply use "Ctrl" and "c"- hold Ctrl and press c. This will copy. Then to paste use "Ctrl" then "v" in the same manner. smile

The way I get it to work is to put the cursor at the beginning of what you want to copy, press and hold the left mouse button and drag across what you want to copy, this should change to blue, you then let go, click right mouse and you should then be able to select copy.
