I can select text in the contents area of the help view, but I cannot copy it. Edit>Copy is not enabled and Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Insert does not work. Given that example code is an important part of help, the fact that it cannot be copied is a rather significant limitation. NOTES: KK (2001-06-06 11:33:38) Ctrl-C used to work, and is broken again. Our IE control does not receive this event. Moving PR to ITPUI. Right click -> Copy still works. There are issues in supporting Edit>Copy, so we do not plan on supporting this way for the help view. KH (6/6/2001 12:53:52 PM) Ctrl-C is hooked as an accerator by the Workbench. The workbench should be forwarding this to the active view. When your view is active it is your responsbility to forward the event to the widgets you created. This includes active X controls that you create. Pls verify that your view is getting the event. If it is not, then move the PR back to the UI folder. DB (6/8/2001 2:17:51 PM) This is not a stop-ship and will be deferred. The workaround is to use the IE5 context menu: select the text, and right click then "Copy".

In 2.0 we are moving to external help viewer, also with the IE Active-X embedded. The Ctrl-C works in the latest drivers in both external help viewer, as well as in the help perspective.
