Hi Len,
There is a keyboard method for doing this, but it's not as intuitive as it should be.
What method would you want to see for doing this task? I'm asking because I do have a couple of ideas, but it's always good to get input from folks who use the program, because we want to know what you would expect to work
Now, the way it currently works is that you can use Region/Select a region, and put in the measure numbers for the region you want to copy. Then you can select the target Paste region the same way, or you can select a measure and then use Edit/Paste special/Insert region from clipboard if you're wanting to insert those copied measures as new measures somewhere.
Please do let me know your thoughts on how this feature could be smarter, and also if you have any further questions or problems.
ttfn,
Sherry
