Copy Medical Examiner data to your own spreadsheet

You can easily copy your Medical Examiner clipboard to a spreadsheet of your own, which you can then sort any way you like for a reading log.

1. Open your Medical Examiner clipboard.
2. Click the left-most cell of the top entry - this will be an author name.
3. Hold the SHIFT key and click the right-most cell of the bottom line - the Toe Tag count. This should select the entire table.
4. COPY the table to your computer's clipboard.
5. Open your own spreadsheet, either your own file or a Google sheet works.
6. Click the upper left cell.
7. PASTE. This should paste the entire contents into individual cells.
