Like Gil said, I'm not sure that will work in this case. My theory is that the two SDSF fields are simply concatenated together, including any trailing blanks, when they arrive at the host. So splitting lines without splitting words would introduce more blanks that would interfere with the command, at least in Skip's case.

Vista has a similar function, but you need to draw a window with the mouse telling it the location of the area you want to paste your data, and then hit ctrl-w (PasteWindow). I use that when I have a string of data typically with few or no CR's that I need to get to the screen. Note this is not a plug just a response, don't throw me out of the group please.

And probably dozens more!

Thanks Skip (Vista TN3270 user #1)

Wow. I had forgotten about Paste-by-typing! IIRC Tom created that function 
years ago at my request to handle some long since abandoned IBM problem 
management app. Until now I never had a reason to revisit the function.



In my estimation, most of Vista's special copy/paste functions cannot be found 
represented in ANY other emulator.
