In the previous verion of Roxio that came bundled with my Dell computer (version I can't seem to find) in a storyline frame in VideoWave I could copy text from a document outside Roxio (e.g. - from Wrod Perfect) and paste it into the Roxio text frame.  This is very convenient when text you want to use in your production already exists elsewhere.  

I upgraded to version 8 and now can't paste text into the Roxio text frame.  I have been frustrated by a number of changes from the old version I had, but have learned to use version 8 and like it now except for the inability to paste in text.  It's highly irritating to have to retype the text.  I find it a bit hard to believe that they would have gotten rid of this ability, so I am assuming I am missiong something.  

Can someone tell me how to do this?

I don't have V8 on my computer anymore but V9 is almost identical.  I was able to do it with no problems. After getting a text box on the video, I simply used CTRL-V to paste it.
Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.

Thanks much.  I was trying to use the menus and the paste was always grayed out.  I just tried CTRL-V and it worked just fine.  I knew there had to be a simple solution.  Thanks again.
