He'll do fine once he does it once. Its just one of those things that we assume someone who posts a lot knows. He does good as afraid of electronics as he is...lol. I promise not to tease him about it
I'll admit though, I've been doing it for years and not long ago, I wanted to c&p something and sat there with a blank look on my face...didn't have the first freakin clue...lol. I left, come back like the next day. I actually had to do it without thinking about it, just let my fingers go through the motions (I know there's a name for it, but I can't remember that now..lol ).
The name for it is 'muscle memory', and some days, mine forget stuff too.

Use the CTRL and C keys held down together to copy, use the CTRL and V keys down together to paste. CTRL X gives you the option to cut rather than copy ... helps in many cases doing paperwork in Word or Excel.
I can't seem to get any method to work consistantly.

I just noticed the "Preview Post" option is up and running. Now Kim can check to see if his copy and paste worked...or not.
Hey where did the "Preview Post" thing go? I just used it on my most recent post in the General Forum. At least I think I did. Insert confused face here→

Joe, I've been thinking about you the last couple of days. How is it going? Have you made any plans? Did you attend the show in Knoxville?
Here is what had me thinking about ya. I've been working on my CargoMax and needed some help from a welding shop and the old man that runs the shop (73 years old and a real character) is 80-85% deaf. I had to really make an effort to be able to communicate with him. Yesterday, he needed to make a phone call, so he showed me his cell phone...and his hearing aid/phone amplifier set up. It worked basicly like a "wired" hands free device. He actually wore the device around his neck and it hung under his shirt like a necklace. The wires ran up and over the back of his ears and were connected directly to his hearing aids. He could talk on the phone (hands free) and hear better on the phone than he can hear in a normal conversation. It looked like something that might be helpful to you.
He did not wear the device today (I was going to ask for a good look at it). I did ask him about it though and he said it was called Phonak. He did say that he got it through the VA. So, that might be a place to start or at least research if your not VA eligible.
I did not go back and read everything you have talked about, so this may be something you already know about, but I thought I would make a post here anyway. From what I saw of "Jack's" device, it looked promising for those with hearing challenges.
Good Luck! Haven't heard from you in a while?
Edit: I did finally find what looks like the device Jack was using. Here is a link: http://www.phonak.com/com/b2c/en/products/accessories/compilot-tvlink-s/overview.html

'Phonack is the 'brand' of hearing aids the the VA uses most of the time for vets who have hearing problems. Mine are digital and I have a remote to control the volume etc. Mine to not have the ability to connect to the phone.
The link above is apparently for a bluetooth style, but I was positive that Jack told me his were actually wired to his hearing aids. I just know that they seemed to work very well. He was very happy with it. It was nice to see him carry on a phone conversation that was as normal as could be...after watching him struggle to communicate in normal conversations.
The difference as he explained it was that in normal conversation, he has to turn his hearing aids up so strong that he gets a lot of background noise. When he is using the phone, I guess it cuts out everything but the phone and he can hear it well.
He said he served for 4 years and 2 of those were on the flight deck.
