To copy an access plan
Right-click the Access Plan pane and select Copy.
When the access plan is displayed as Tree Plan or Plain Language Plan, the access plan can be pasted as text or as a bitmap picture. Graphic applications, such as MS Paint, only paste the access plan as a bitmap. Text applications, such as Notepad, only paste it in a text format. Applications that handle both text and graphics, such as Microsoft Word, allow you to choose the format if you select the Paste Special option to paste the image.
