Well I "knew" that the Crl-C Ctrl-V wouldn't work, but I tried it anyway, and sure enough, no worky. HOWEVER, the sysexp.exe program did capture the contents of that window, and it turned out to be a truncated .cwp file of a previous version of one of my projects (I name projects Song v01, song v02, etc., periodically saving to same project folder ... that way I can always go back a level and retrieve something I screwed up [a procedure I learned the hard way in Microsoft Word]). SO MUCH THANKS!!
PS: You can tell I"ve been a long-time Cakewalk user since I referred to my .cwp files as .wrk. Silly me.
