First of all, you need to isolate what part "does not work". Does copying fail, or does retrieving the values from the clipboard fail? If Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V do not work, maybe try using the menu instead, by sending `Alt+E` (for "Edit"), `A` ( for "Select All"), `Alt+E` (for "Edit"), `Alt+C` (for "Copy"). Also, are you aware of Win32::IE::Mechanize?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
