There are ways to access the windows clipboard from DOS, but it won't help you here. Maby it's that you save your bas file in binary format, you can change it when you do Save As
NO Duh!, I do the same thing with QBasic Extended: QB7.1

I just now copied text from this
very web page and pasted it into
QB. Did you try using the paste
button on the toolbar to do this?
You activate the toolbar by right-
clicking either the icon in the
task bar or on the program file.
Then go to "Properties" etc.
Also, the paste process is always
slow and may not start until a few
seconds after you click the button.
