Tom, I think the problem is trying to use the clipboard as the middle device. I dont think any of the programs, such as InCD, DirectCD, or others, can support doing what you want to do - meaning copying directly from the clipboard to somewhere to save as a file directly.
Your best bet will always be to open Notepad, Word, or some other word
processor program, if text or similar data, or open an audio or video
program if it is a multimedia type of file, or some other program to handle
the respective data you are trying to save, inporting from the clipboard to
the file you have open, save the file, and then moving the file to the CD.

Please respond to

using the Ahead InCD program to format a CDRW I tried
copying a file to the clipboard then pasting it to the CDRW.
A dialogue box came up saying that long file names were not
supported and gave me the choice of an eight by three name.
However, I am able to save files with long file names from
notepad, wordpad etc. and I am able to copy files with long
file names in DOS.
Anyone know why it won't work with copy/paste?
Thanks,
Tom Dimeo
