I got old dos based application and running in dosbox.
But found that I can not do copy and past between dosbox and windows 7.

You cannot fix this. There is a kludgy workaround somewhere in the forum (search topics by emendelson). Try whether that suits your needs...

Search for topics by emendelson and you will find both an utility to do that and a special dosbox version. Advanced search, author emendelson, search in topics...
