hi
sorry to say but you can copy and paste in the windows supplied calculator.
you just can't use the mouse. you have to use the keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+
C to copy and Ctrl + V to paste. next time you'e in the calculator, on the
menu bar, click edit and you'll see the keyboard shortcuts for copy and
paste. paste wont apear until you have something on the clipboard to paste.

I was trying to use the Calculator and was surprised that I could not copy
numbers from the results of the calculator into Excel. Similarly I could not
copy numbers from my spreadsheet and paste them into the calulator. Of
course, I could have just used Excel in the first place but I did not want to
mess up any of my cells.

Actually this should be a post to the Operating System as the Calculator is
a part of it, but I could not find a place to make a suggestion for the
Operationg System - I am using Vista Home Premium. Maybe Micorosoft can fix
it for Windows 7.
