Feature Request: right-click > copy any number on any register or report

Please build in the capability for me to right-click > copy from Quicken Windows to my clipboard, from any value in any register or report.  I use Excel a lot, and work with lots of accounts, and sometimes just want to grab a value and use it elsewhere without having to remember and re-type it.

    Click the value
    Ctrl-c to copy to clipboard
    Ctrl-v to paste into Excel
    Yes, I understand those are not mouse actions. 
    The mouse actions would be
    Click the value
    Click “Edit”
    Click “Copy”
    Paste into Excel however you choose. 
    Yes a rt-click copy might be nice but that is a pretty busy pop-up already.

    Also, if you want to copy a register row or multiple register rows, all you need to do is highlight the rows, and then right click to choose "Copy Transactions".  Then go to Excel, put your cursor where you want to copy the information, and then simply do a Ctrl+V.

    Unless I am missing something, this only works for values that are selectable, i.e. those that get a dark blue background when clicked on. In general this does not work for values in reports as the OP requested.

    True (it appears).  I was operating and testing in a register, not a report. 

    Within a report, the Ctrl-C copies the entire report to the clipboard for subsequent pasting of the entire report into Excel (or similar).

    I second the "copy" and "paste" additions!
    (To the "already too large" or "pretty busy pop-up already": "Context Menus" or "Right Click Menus".)
