Jerry, Just got back to this issue... I actually had gotten this advice from Mr. Google, but it doesn't work for me, if I go into insert mode and type CTRL V, all that happens is that the contents of the Windows scrap get pasted at the position of the cursor. (I think I also replied on the group, but I'm not sure if it was successful...).
