Hi Rodrigo,

Thanks.  But actually I'm looking for a way to *enable* copying to the clipboard when the ACL option 'Replicate and copy documents' is not selected.  The help says copying to the clipboard is possible, but we're not seeing that; how can it be done?  I want to prevent copying of entire documents, but permit copying of small snippets of document text (such as text field values) to the clipboard.  The first thing is working, the second is not.

You could use a prompt to display the contents of the field in an input box where it could be copied.  Only drawback is that you are limited to 254 characters.  I tries to use a dialogbox but that did not work and still honored the prevent copy setting.  To use a prompt to display your field value for copying do this:

On your form create a field called Body1. 

Place a button next to the field with this formula:

@Prompt([OkCancelEdit];"Copy Box"; "you can copy this text"; Body1)

The text in the Body1 field will be placed in the prompt's input box where you can copy it (limit of 254 characters)

The snippets are mostly fewer than 254 characters.  We'll see how the users like this - thank you!
