How to accomplish "copy object" in newer SPSS versions

[Mary Lynn-2]

I kept a copy of SPSS 15 on my PC for one reason - it allowed you to "copy
object" preserving the original formatting from the SPSS output.  I
produce a number of reports that I need this function instead of "copy"
which creates sometimes unwiedly tables.   HELP!

In SPSS output right click on table and "copy", then in Word 2003, for example, click on Edit>Paste Special>Enhanced Metafile. In Word 2007, it is Home>Paste (with more options)>Enhanced Metafile.  Ralph
