            "All goes fine but I do not know how to copy my email address."

            I don't think it's possible in Opera (with Opera's standard functions).
            You can't use a results of search in Opera's action.

              I still don't know why you're using an external program to do things Opera does itself ...

                Hi sgunhouse,

                as I do not know how I am to be able to:

                During compose in M2

                look up + select + copy ===> From: myemail@mail.com

                to copy " myemail@mail.com " only, without the from.

                As I am tyring to do this so that I can assign sequences command to context menu so that it can be use for lot of things in my situation. ( assign many different function of context menu during compose in M2 )

                Thanks
                edmond.

                  Where are you planning to use the address?

                  I was especially referring to you use of nircmd.exe to send tab characters. You could just use the function assigned to tab directly.

                    There is no way to emulate sending "Enter" with built-in commands(functions) in Opera, especially in the text field and in the most of a UI elements. But Insert, "x" (where x - tab character inserted from the text editor) should work.

                      Hi sgunhouse,

                      thanks for the time.

                      I was making few different context menu about :

                      When compose complete in M2., right click a context menu,

                      Look up in mail body, the people in the From: sender@maill.com and in the cc: otherpeople@mail.com

                      Copy them & paste back to the "To:" and "cc:" respectively. ( I can assigned the Focus widget & dy, 200...etc. )

                      Reply all is not apply to the above due to some reason so that I need to do above steps in order to copy the mail sender addresses.

                      in simple, I want a right click to a context menu M2 will copy sender@myemail@mail , paste to the "to:" . I know delay, 200 & copy the otherpeople@mail.com to the "cc:".

                      range next line not okay as some of the email with empty lines differently so that why I need M2 to spot right at the mail (sender@mail.com ) and (otherpeople@mail.com )

                      Thank you very much.
                      Edmond.

                        HI stng,

                        In Compose mode, if after I preformed the "Find" function & click the default button.

                        The Highighted item " From: " is in Green High-lighted.

                        Is there way I am able to go to the next word ? * range next word...etc.

                        I am doing most of the time answer email to different people ( many of them ) but some reason I am not using reply all.

                        Like below, I need to copy the people from the "to" or the "cc:"
