Click where you want it to go and use Ctrl+v
See if that works.

Yeh, tried that, too, but the same result. I've been using ctrl x and ctrl v for so long. It's just not working. Baffled.

Are you sure you don't have to hit the Fn key first?

When I open Paint and choose Edit-->, the only selections in the submenu that are even available are Select All and Paste From...everything else is greyed out.

The solution, for this laptop anyway...
Sorry I left this thread mid-solution, but was away on a bizz trip that morphed into the 4th day...
Anyway, it's the <<fn>> key plus <<insert (prt sc)>> that capture the display image, which I then paste into Paint for saving as a jpeg. So thank you for post #32, midknyte. This is something that Train also advised in a previous thread of mine a while back, so even more reason to review one's history and post back!
In the name of saving valuable time, I'll now create the screenshots of files that show my entire, current list of programs for some help with uninstalling any that I don't need on an older system such as this one.
Thanks again.

Per my post #50: to increase available resources, whatever I can stop from loading, using either uninstall in Control Panel or a web-based uninstaller, here is the most current lineup of my programs.programs.01.JPGprograms.02.JPG
Thank you.

Adobe reader - I use PDFXchange viewer a lot lighter on the system.
HP update - after 3 months of ownership that can go.
J2SE is out of date I believe and needs to be updated or uninstalled
HP wireless, replace with Windows wireless, then uninstall
If you switch to the VLC media player, you can get rid of Quicktime.
Unless you really use the Apple/Itunes stuff, I dump it too.
Just my thoughts as I hate these memory hogs
