Is it possible to open a file, copy info and paste into another application?

Yes, you can do this with Macro Express. We have an example of this in our Help file entitled “Advanced – Copy and Paste Routine”. This tutorial will walk you through the steps on how to do this. The tutorial is also available to view online or is downloadable in a MS Word format.

Or take a look at the ASCII File Begin Process command to eliminate the need to go back and forth between applications.
