I have this particular text conversation that's extremely long, far too long to type out that I would like to save. I'm familiar with services such as samsung's smart switch and sms backup+. Sms backup is nice, but far too limited. What I would like is to be able to view all of the messages in chronological order such as is displayed on my phone and the ability to copy and past them. Are there any services which permit me to do that? Thank you for your time and help.

I get you man. What I do is that I use SMS Backup+ and it has the feature to send all my texts to my Gmail account. When I open my gmail on PC, I see all my texts in chronological order under "SMS" label. I can copy paste it anywhere I want by opening it in gmail on PC. If you havent tried this, you should look into it. Maybe make a separate gmail account for only this purpose?

Perhaps I should add more details. A facet of my girfriend's and mine relationship is that we've always written extremely long text messages to one another. Due to some unforeseen circumstances she has lost our entire conversation (Being the thread of texts since I met her). I had hoped to find a way to transpose the information from my phone onto my pc as to give me the ability to utilize copy and paste. I intended to create a word document of our entire conversation (since I met her). The ability to copy and past large quantities of text would be invaluable in saving time.
