Solved: Keystroke macro
Is there a simple way to store keystrokes(my email address) to a button macro? Years ago I could do this at work on UG11 and it was a real timesaver. I don't have the mental recall I used to and I certainly don't type any faster. Thanks Bill

Clipboard utilities would do it, like ClipCache or ClipMate. I use Shortkeys and PhraseExpress is a good, free one that is similar.

Didn't know there was a free one. So, why did I buy it?

Thanks for the info.

I'll just comfort myself with the thought that there wasn't any "Lite" version when I got mine a few years back.

I take comfort in the extra greenbacks in my wallet.
