Default Excel Check if copy envoked

You could use
if application.cutcopymode = xlcut then
(or xlcopy or false)

But the real bad news is that rest of the macro can't do much. Most macros that
do anything will kill the clipboard. So if your code does (almost) anything,
there's a good chance that you're going to kill the paste operation--there won't
be anything left in the clipboard.

Hi,

Is it possible to check if when the user clicks a new worksheet
(Worksheet_Activate()) if they have/are coping something - then run
something but then continue the copy command?

i.e.

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()

'if the user is trying to copy'n'paste something between sheets/workbooks,
first

With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.LeftFooter = "&Sheet Footer information"
End With

'now continue copy'n'paste

End Sub
