Question

Why can we no longer use the 'Select/Copy' from Print Preview?

.\alephcom\tab\alephcom.ini has
NewPrintType=Y

Answer

The Print Preview in Aleph 22 is created by HTMLPrint, not using Internet Explorer any longer.
HTMLPrint does not offer the 'Select/Copy' functionality.

To adress this issue in 22.1 Minor Release a new option "Browse HTML" has been introduced (rep_change #2107). This option can be used to Select/Copy.

Additional Information

The Release Notes inform about this fact:
"* In the Preview mode, embedded IE options are not available in the new HTMLPrint preview window.

For example:
* Text selection option
* View source option"

See section 'New HTMLPrint' in 'Aleph 22 Release Notes'.

*******
Possible workaround if you require 'Copy & Paste' functionality from lists before installing 22.1 Minor Release:

- Use F11 to print a list (with option 'Preview')
- The HTMLPrint preview is opened. In parallel a temporary *.html file is saved to the PC (usually C:\temp\Aleph as defined in the alephcom.ini file).
- Open this file with a browser to copy relevant text parts
