I expect no-one has a clue why you can't copy and paste. You may need to contact a moderator who may need to ask Admin. I had a problem with my PM not working and that was the route that eventually gave a solution.

A couple of starter questions though:
1. What platform & OS are you using? (e.g. PC with Windows)
2. Where are you trying to copy from and to?

Windows 7 And notepad. Thanks, If you right click there is no paste option. Not there.

If you're using Windows 7 then what you need to do is highlight the text that you want to copy, then use the ctrl-c keys to copy it, then when you go to the Forum page you want to copy it into, use the ctrl-v keys to paste it where you position your cursor.
It does sound like you may have your context menu deactivated.

I normally use ctr-v to paste (or the browser Edit/Paste option). However the right click option does work for me...

...But I have noticed that you have to right click on the same line as the flashing cursor or you don't get the Paste option..
