Could have saved yourself some grief by reading http://www.piotrkaluski.com/files/winguitest/docs/winguitest.html and using WinSpy or Win32-GuiTest/ Recorder/Win32GuiTest.exe

This was recorded in a cmd.exe window in QuickEdit/Insert mode, left mouse down + drag to select some text, right click to copy and right click to paste; I trimmed a bunch of MouseMoveAbsPix calls and inserted sleep

#!/usr/bin/perl ## Initially generated by Win32-GuiTest Recorder (v1.03) ## Pragmas/Directives use strict; use warnings; ## Imports use Win32::GuiTest qw/:ALL/; $Win32::GuiTest::debug = 0; # Set to "1" to enable debug output. ## Main/Core SendRawKey(VK_LCONTROL, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY); MouseMoveAbsPix(325, 279); SendMouse('{LEFTDOWN}'); MouseMoveAbsPix(362, 283); SendRawKey(VK_LCONTROL, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | KEYEVENTF_KEYUP); MouseMoveAbsPix(362, 283); SendMouse('{LEFTUP}'); sleep 1; SendMouse('{RIGHTCLICK}'); SendMouse('{RIGHTCLICK}'); __END__
