There's a free program called AutoHotKey (www.keytext.com, $30)
For AutoHotKey, download and install the program. Then make a file named, oh, how about MyKeystrokes.ahk with this one single line:
Send ^!v
That's rather cryptic, breaks down as:^ = CTRL
! = ALT
v = letter v
Then, all we have to do is run this file and it will send your CTRL+ALT+V keystroke. How to get Opus9 to run this program? I'm not sure! I'm kinda new to Opus9. I'm pretty sure there's a way to do it.
I think to launch the file all you do is give the filename. e.g. if file is C:\Users\Public\test.ahk and it contains this one line:MsgBox, Hello Worldthen your button command would be:C:\Users\Public\test.ahk
So if you made a file CtrlAltV.ahk with this one single line:Send ^!vthen make your button command:Clipboard COPYNAMES
C;\Users\Public\CtrlAltV.ahk
Thanks a lot for the help!
But, I would like to keep this as the last option.. because, I would not prefer to keep an additional program installed and running, for just this purpose.
I would like to see if this can be done by Dopus itself or through some script.
Thank you for the .vbs script. I need all the simple .vbs scripts I can find to help me learn that.
Question: What does this do:{A|dopusdata}
What does the{A|part of the code do?
And how do I find what location dopusdata refers to? Probably something like C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\GPSoftware\Directory Opusbut the only reference I can find to dopusdata in the documentation mentions /dopusdata, /dopuslocaldata, and /dopusglobaldata
I tried GO /dopusdata
GO dopusdata
GO \dopusdata but none of them worked.
(BTW, AutoHotKey doesn't run in the background. When you launch a *.ahk file, autohotkey.exe starts up, runs the file, then quits.)

As you know, Opus provides a folder path alias system whereby you can use “Shortcuts” to refer to standard system paths. Some alias paths are defined internally by GPSoftware in DOpus. /dopusdata is one of them. If you type /dopusdata in DOpus location bar and press Enter, your will be redirect to main path. {A} is equivalent with {alias} and is a DOpus internal command too. This command allow the value of folder aliases to be passed to external programs by DOpus (Search alias in DOpus help file for more detail).
As I said previously, just type /dopusdata in DOpus location bar and press Enter key.
P.S. You can define new aliases and see DOpus internal aliases in Settings -> Prefs -> Favorite & Recent -> Folder Aliases. The Show built-in aliases checkbox must be checked to internal aliases be appeared.
