Hiya folks, maybe someone here can help me...

When you receive a SMS, how do you highlight and copy something in the message? Reason for asking? Well... I'm trying to copy and paste an address from the SMS to my Address Book, but just can't seem to do it.

Surely copy 'n' paste is possible? :confused:

The last time I checked, copy/paste isn't possible anywhere on any app on the iPhone.
Whether the app be SMS, Mail, Safari, etc, it's not possible.
 
There's an application on Cydia (I think I got it from Cydia) called CopierciN. You can point it at an SMS message and copy it to another ...or email too I think it works on. However you can only copy like one line at a time. I don't think you can copy a whole conversation.

You can copy from Safari to Safari or Safari to Mail with Pastebud (pastebud.com) or iCopy.
