Copy & Paste text using Numpad

Allows you to store clips (like ctrl+c and ctrl+v) to Num1 to Num9 when numlock is off. Extremely useful for data entry.

How to Setup:

1. Install AutoHotKey: https://www.autohotkey.com/download/

2. Download the NumpadCopyPaste.ahk file and run the .ahk script file.

How to use

To activate:

1. Press Numlock key to disable Numlock (pressing number keys will no longer input numbers). This will allow you to start using the AutoHotKey.

To copy:

1. Highlight the text you want to copy as you would do for "Ctrl+c".
2. Hold Numpad 0 and press any of the numpad: Numpad 1,Numpad 2, ..., Numpad 9 to assign the highlighted text to the numpad key.

You can store up to 9 strings of text

To paste:

1. Press the assigned numpad key to paste the text.

To clear all

1. Hold Numpad 0 and press del in the numpad.

To deactivate:

1. Press Numlock key to activate Numlock (pressing number keys will now input numbers).

I learnt AutoHotKey and wrote this (and modifying codes I found in forums) a few years back to aid me in inputting client data into CRM for my sales job. Hope this would help you too.

Cheers!
