Copy/pasting in software that does not support copy/paste.

I was given a small data entry job in which I had to type 134 pages and I had to do this in a specific software. Problem is that I typed almost 79 pages in MS-Word and I came to know that the software which that guy gave me does not support Copy/Paste. Is there any way I can copy the text from my Word file and put it in that software. Help me out guy I need to submit the assignment within 10 days and I can type all those 79 pages plus remaining 55 pages in 10 days.

^^ mention the name of software which that guy gave you. So,Forum member can easily help you.

It's some generic software. It just says ''Application window'' thats all.'And it has name of company to its folder Real Info Serve. I don't think that can help much thats why I didn't mention it in my first post. The App window does not even have Minmize/Restore Down/Close buttons on it.

So that mean you can't copy paste anything on that but once ask to that guy about the issue.if he cant solve then start typing again that's the solution.

if possible upload screenshot of that software "Application window".

Is it a offline application or online? Some years ago I got this type of software from my friend, if it is the same, then may be I can help you. There is a trick where you can store the data directly to the database, i.e a Password Protected MS-Access DB File. Better you put some screenshot here..

It is an offline app and it does have a password protected database file located in D:\ drive. I think that it might be the same app you're talking about.

........ hmm, sounds something similar, that app also has a password protected mdb. You can bypass it, try google , or i will let you know. in the db, you can insert record by copy pasting. just play with the application and see how the data is been inserted in the db.

I have seen that even if in some software doesnot allow copy paste feature in the Edit menu, pressing Ctrl+C helps. Just try it. Select your test and press Ctrl+C. Then open notepad and press Ctrl+V.

Else what I would have done is install a free OCR software, take print screen of my typed texts and save them as *.jpg(preferably) and read them using OCR.

May sound harder but there's always a way.

^^ He wants to do the other way round. Copying data from word and pasting it into the peculiar software.

I wonder why ctrl + v wouldn't work, since its looking like a normal textbox to me.

oohh, is he, then God save you. Reverse engineer the application and rewrite the program and this time put the copy paste codes in it.

Remember, there is always a way, somtimes it is tougher.

I solved the problem last night. Thanks to arijitsinha, he suggested me to unlock the password protected *.mdb file. I copy pasted all the content into the mdb and it automatically appeared inside the text box. Thank you guys for all your help. :smile:

I think WordWeb[1] doesn't allow Ctrl+C too(for the word definitions)

Hello Friends , I have a text editing software given, named notepad alpha where I got a job to typing text. it do not allow to copy paste from MS word after correcting the spelling mistakes, so is there any way that I type all text in MS. word, correct the spellings and paste pack in this notepad Alpha software? Thank you. Please let em know I have some ten days now to correct even a small mistake of space to submit

Try autoit. Autoit allows automating various things. It also allows 'typing' clipboard contents. See last post here : Type Clipboard contents . Just tested it .

1. install autoit
2. Copy paste following into notepad. Save as anything.au3 . Make sure its not anything.au3.txt . Enable extensions in explorer.

Code:

#include <Clipboard.au3>
HotKeySet("+^v", "TypeClipText")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

Func TypeClipText()
   $Text = ClipGet()
   ControlSend("", "", "", $Text, 0)
EndFunc   ;==>TypeClipText

Func Terminate()
   Exit 0
EndFunc   ;==>Terminate

3. Run anything.au3 . double click
4. Copy stuff . In notepad alpha press Ctrl+Shift+v

M

Hi Cute.
thanks for suggestion. I installed AutIt v3 and run it opened same menu, In the title bar it is showing as (Frozen) AutiIt v3 Window Info ) I minimised it,
I copy paste and save the script u shared as anything.au3 file ( not as anything.au3.txt) . I double clicked now in which application it should open or run?
Extension enabled in Explored ( I E Option --> Advanced tab --> browser section)

so After anything.au3 is run I think I should cooy some test and asdd to clip board and then open Notepad Alph and paste it by pressgin CRTL+Shift+V?
please reply
Thank you again for opening some way for this this will same my 10 days,,

-Mohan

Just double click to run. That will run it. You will see it running in taskbar , the right portion with icons. Make sure to not run it twice. If you have, close.

yup exactly this.

Autotit isn't run directly. autoit scripts are run, which appear in taskbar.

M

Thank you, I checked it in task bar , despite the autiit asking me to select the script file and me having selected the script, script is not showing as any icon in task bar, . I went through the full list in task bar menu, I could not see any related process running, any thing I need to look in by virtue of some name to identify if this script is running?

Second thing : tried to double click anything .au3 it got opened in IE but the IE showed pop up window of " View Downloads - Internet Explorer" and it was asking I f need to open this anything.au3 and when I clicked on Open again it is showing back same Pop menu and asking if I need to open
Pls help , Am desperate to escape fro 12 days work now, thank you in advance

Edit: Oh . The script had an error. See script in next reply.

1. Its not in taskbar, but in the 'notification area' . The right part of the taskbar, where the time is shown. Windows now hides those icons though. There should be a small arrow there, clicking which shows the icons.
Process will appear as autoit.exe in task manager.
For double run, Are you sure autoit is installed ? Double click run won't run if a portable version is used.
But double click run isn't important. Opening with right click > open with autoit 'should' also work . Check task manager

I think you may have figured how to run it. Try copying something then > Ctrl+shift+V in normal notepad to see if it works.

Working Script. IMPORTANT: Ctrl+shift will kind of misbehave after Ctrl+shift+v . Solution: simply press ctrl and shift couple of times AFTER everything has been typed/pasted.

Code:

;Set Hotkey of Ctrl-Shift-V to type clipboard text.
;Useful for situations that don't permit traditional pasting
#include <Clipboard.au3>
AutoItSetOption ( "SendKeyDelay" , 0 )

HotKeySet("+^v", "TypeClipText")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

While 1
Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func TypeClipText()
$Text = ClipGet ( )
Send($Text,1)
EndFunc

Func Terminate()
Exit 0
EndFunc ;==>Terminate

Excellent !!
You made it for me. It has worked
I will just complete on project and let you know
Really a GoodDay !!
