Captivate Closed Captioning - Copy & Paste Text

Hi fellow Captivate users,

Does anyone know why you can't copy & paste text into the closed captioning with 2017 release?  I was using version 8 before and I was able to copy and paste text when setting up the closed captioning for each slide.  Now, I am unable to right click to get the copy/paste option when setting up each line of the CC.  Is it that it will only carry over the slide notes from a PPT?  If so, I'm at a disadvantage when starting a project from Captivate instead of importing a PPT.  Copy and paste was very helpful for me before, I'm hoping I'm just missing something and that I can somehow do this in the 2017 version.  Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

    Do keystrokes work for you?  (Ctrl + C to copy, Ctrl + V to paste.)

    Just tried it, and that worked!  Not a keystroke  person so never thought to try that.  Thanks so much!  Something so minor was driving me crazy!
