Thanks Rick, I can't use "Paste Special" (Alt+ctrl+V) in the eBay comment box, only control V which I think is the same as "paste" but thanks for the input.
I did try to past a bunch of "shift" characters into this box but just got an "Error.Ttry again" message.
This is the same as above pasted in but not corrected.

Oh, your try to past into ebay. Then use MS-Word for spell-check then copy/past it into Notepad, this will scrub out all the control characters. Copy/past form Notepad to ebay, that works.
Hi Rick, I asked this before, but maybe the question is more properly placed here. I have a problem; Im dyslectic so I get embarrassed about my spelling. I use "Word" I type stuff in that and it usually puts me right, I then paste that into the box. But if I do this with say eBay, if I don't go into the text and erase and re-enter some of the characters like speech marks "" Apostrophe ' they get turned into a question marks, which is also embarrassing.
Corel Draw is a well known drawing application. I have had CorelDraw 10 since it first came out and of course there are newer releases now. But now you should be able to pick up 10 at a very good price. Thanks.
Thank you for making the video about my question !!
I did not know that CorelDRAW had libraries of electronic symbols included?
My biggest gripe was that the circuits do not look "pretty" after using some of the electronics programs for PC (I know, I'm a sucker for aesthetics) and after seeing your diagrams I thought "wow those are pretty stylish symbols and diagrams"
I guess I suffer from the "beautification" complex being a Mac user now...
Your are welcome. There are stock symbols for CorelDRAW but I never use them I prefer to do my own drawings. If you download my book you will see many more examples. Everything in the book I did 100%.
I like how the print screen function on XP captures the whole screen and puts it on the clip board but it crashes my ancient MGI PHotosuite which was a win95 prog, yeah I know its old but its all i got and its light and fast. and I didnt know about the alt and print screen as i dont have a function key but thanks for the info. that will save me from editing what i want out of a entire screen capture.
Oh yes, I use this trick nearly every day when making maps or 3D graphics at work, especially when I need to make a quick print to show someone a map. Also some of the applications I use make it difficult to export a graphics file directly and alt-prtscrn into Powerpoint and Word works so well.

In MS-Word Try special past, text. Also I find that Google makes a good spell-check.

Very informative! I have searched in the past quite long for a simple drawing program. This (Corel Draw) has a professional look.
