<td><h1>Using Stored Passwords</h1>
<p>How to transfer passwords stored in KeePass to other applications.</p></td>
</tr></table>

<p>There are many different methods to transfer passwords stored in KeePass
to other applications:</p>

<ul>
<li><a href="#mainlist">Main Entry List</a></li>
<li><a href="#dragdrop">Drag&amp;Drop</a></li>
<li><a href="#autotype">Auto-Type</a></li>
<li><a href="#plugins">Plugins</a></li>
</ul>

<br />

<a name="mainlist"></a>
<h2 class="sectiontitle"><img src="../images/b16x16_ascii.png" alt="" />
Main Entry List</h2>

<p>Depending on which field you double-click in the entry list of the main window,
different actions are performed:</p>

<ul>
<li><b>Title field:</b> open the entry editing dialog for this entry.<br />
If you hold down the <kbd><kbd>Shift</kbd></kbd> key while double-clicking,
the title is copied to the clipboard instead.</li>
<li><b>User name field:</b> copy user name to the clipboard.</li>
<li><b>Password field:</b> copy password to the clipboard.</li>
<li><b>URL field:</b> open URL.<br />
If you hold down the <kbd><kbd>Shift</kbd></kbd> key while double-clicking,
the URL is copied to the clipboard instead.
This behavior can be reversed by turning on the option
'Copy URLs to clipboard instead of opening them'.</li>
<li><b>Notes field:</b> copy notes to the clipboard.</li>
<li><b>Attachment field:</b> [1.x] copy to clipboard, [2.x] open in
internal editor / viewer.</li>
<li><b>Other fields</b> (like time
and UUID fields): copy the contents of that field to the clipboard.</li>
</ul>

<br />

<a name="dragdrop"></a>
<h2 class="sectiontitle"><img src="../images/b16x16_ascii.png" alt="" />
Drag&amp;Drop</h2>

<p>You can drag&amp;drop all fields of KeePass entries into other windows:</p>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="../images/dragndrop.png" alt="Drag&amp;Drop" />
</div>

<br /><br />

<a name="autotype"></a>
<h2 class="sectiontitle"><img src="../images/b16x16_ktouch.png" alt="" />
Auto-Type</h2>

<p>Auto-Type is a powerful feature that sends simulated keypresses to
other applications.</p>

<p>You can find more details about it here:
<a href="autotype.html">Auto-Type documentation page</a>.</p>

<br />

<a name="plugins"></a>
<h2 class="sectiontitle"><img src="../images/b16x16_blockdevice.png" alt="" />
Plugins</h2>

<p>There are a lot of plugins available that integrate KeePass with
other applications.</p>

<p>You can find these integration plugins on the
<a href="https://keepass.info/plugins.html" target="_blank">plugins</a> page.</p>
