I frequently send it 'recently heard/worked dx' to a newsletter.
I've tried to copy using normal copy/paste with little success.
Today I stumbled upon a way of doing it.

Basically I can't do a whole log line.
I've tried highlighting by clicking on the first little column field to no
avail.
What I did find was:
My first coloumn with data is the date.
Put the cursor in the first field you want to start with
hold down shift and put the cursor if the first field AFTER the last field
you want to copy.
This will highlight those fields but obviously the a right click does not
bring up the copy/paste/etc menu.
Instead:
Use Control C to turn on the copy command and then in Notepad or Email
window, a normal Paste or Control V will work.
You guys probably all know this...I've been using DXB for quite a while and
finally figured this out.
