We are looking into this issue, but in the mean time I think there is a
work-around.<br>
This work-around MAY be system/operating system dependent, so please
let me know if this procedure does not work on your computer, as it
does here.<br>
<br>
The key is that you need to select and copy via the <u>keyboard</u>
and not the mouse. For starters, select the first cell by first
clicking with the mouse and then using the arrow keys to move away and
back to the desired cell. After the initial mouse click the text in
the cell will be selected (as shown below), but additional cells cannot
be selected when in this mode.<br>

(figure 1)<br>
Once the arrow keys are used to re-select the highlighted cell, the
selection is indicated by a thick border around the selected cell (as
shown below). The cell is NOW in a mode where you can select
additional cells (using the keyboard and not the mouse).<br>

(figure 2)<br>
Holding the <Shift> key down and using the arrow keys you can now
select the desired cells for copy (shown below). Once the desired
cells are selected in this manor, pressing <Ctrl>-C will copy
their contents to the clipboard for pasting into Excel or other
applications.<br>

<br>
<u><b>- ALSO -</b></u><br>
You will find similar issues w/ using the right mouse button menus in
the spreadsheet control. When a cell is selected such that the cell
contents are highlighted or the blinking cursor appears inside the cell
(as in figure 1 above), then clicking on the cell with the right mouse
button will not display the familiar eQUEST/DOE-2 drop-down menu with
help, default & expression options. You must first get the cell
into a thick-border selection state, as in figure 2. You can do this
by using the right mouse button to select a cell that is not already
selected, OR you can use the arrow keys as described above and press
<Alt>-F1 to cause the menu to display.<br>
<br>
Sorry for the confusion here.<br>

noticed that under the spreadsheet tabs in
equest 3.64 you can no longer drag and highlight multiple column
entries at
once and copy. You can still highlight a single entry and hit control
C, but
this would take an eternity to copy an entire column into another
program such
as excel for calculation purposes.</span></p>
