Edit Menu
Undo
Reversing an Action.
If you perform an action that produces an unwanted result, you can reverse or UNDO the action. If new text has been typed and you choose Undo, InfoRecall restores the Text Editor to its previous state by erasing the newly typed text. You can reverse the erase and get the text back by choosing Undo again.
If you delete text, you can restore it with Undo.
Note: You must choose Undo before performing any other action. If you delete text with the Cut Full Text or Cut Selected Text menu items then use Paste to restore the text.

Paste Special
This function displays the clipboard data in a number of available formats:
Native Object Format: If available this is the first format in the list box. The data in this format can be later edited (by double clicking the object) using the original application. This data can be embedded into your application by using the Paste option, or you can create a link to the original Folder by using the Paste Link option.
Formatted Text: This is one of the text formats. This option offers the most suitable format if the data is pasted by another text output application as the font and formatting attributes are reproduced accurately.
Unformatted Text: This is another text format. This option pastes the text without retaining the formatting information.
Picture Format: The data is available in the Picture format. This object can be later edited (by double clicking the object) using the Microsoft's MS Draw application. This format is preferred over the bitmap and the device independent bitmap formats.
Device independent and regular bitmap formats: The data is available in the bitmap formats. The object can be later edited (by double clicking the object) using the Microsoft's MS Draw application. The editor converts these formats into the Picture format before calling the drawing application.
