[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] HyperHelp Needed!

Greetings,
I am preparing a presentation and need to "clip" some art from the "Art Ideas" stack (eg; the Mac art, and some telephones, etc.).  I know this is possible, but I can't figure it out!  What's more embarassing I've seen it done.  Little did I know that SOMEDAY (like NOW!) I'd wish I'd been paying closer attention.
I have RSG 4.0 (4.0A coming "in the mail"), WORD 3.02, MacDraw (Old), MacPaint (old), and all the usual standards.  I'm running Multi-finder at the moment, but if that's a prob, I don't have to.  Anyone that can tell me how to put the clip art into the clipboard for export to another prog - I'd be forever grateful (or at least until I get this project finished!).
Best Regards,

Use the Lasso tool...It works just like in MacPaint...

Lasso the stuff you want
Copy it to the clipboard

The HC manual (the one that comes with HC) explains this...
