Hi MDW,

Are any macros being run?

Is there any event code in the sheet's module?

A co-worker of mine is having a strange problem with the Excel clipboard.
When he highlights and copies a range, Excel will clear the clipboard and
the
moving dotted line will vanish from around the copy area. This happens
anywhere from between 4 and 20 seconds after he copies. I've seen it
happen
personally.

He has XL 2000, SP3. Is there a bug or setting in Excel that could account
for this?
