Hurrah!! I've done it! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
Thanks Detective and Kay - with your help I managed to muddle through and did it.
Mind you, I don't know if I could do it again, as I tried different things and can't remember which one worked now! :-)

You've managed more than I can! I can't even highlight that format, let alone copy and paste! Have you tried right-click over the highlighted area, copy then pasting into a Word Doc?

Do you have a snip'it tool? If so, it might be worth making an internet search for instructions.

Hi,
I'm trying to edit, save and print off an article from the British newspaper Archive from Findmy past. The small article I'm wanting is in the middle of the page and I don't know how to "cut and paste" it onto something else. I've managed to highlight it, but thats all. Can anyone help me please?
