Default Copying Excel 2007 data to external programs

I copy 2 cells in Excel 2007, 1 each in a column next to each other (Columns
B & C, row 1).
I go to Microsoft Project 2003, right click in the 1st cell and click Paste,
it acts like it is writing data, but it doesn't write any data in the cells.

If I go to the first cell in Excel, and highlight the first cell, then copy
the data from the data input line (up below the toolbar/ribbon) and then
right click on the 1st cell in Project, it copies the data in there as it
should.

The copy and paste does not work by just copying and pasting the cells, I
have to grab the data from the input line below the toolbar/ribbon now.

I am wondering if I need to change some type of formatting or something else
to make it work now.

Hi,

I can't duplicate your problem copying from Excel 2007 to Word 2003, Project
2003 or Project 2007 or Word 2007. Please give us additional details.

Before being upgraded to Excel 2007, I could highlight 1 or multiple cells
and paste into another application (like Microsoft Project). With 2007 I can
copy and paste inside Excel, but when I try to paste it into another
application, it acts like the data was just blanks. If I click in the data
bar in Excel and copy the data itself, I can then paste the cell into another
application, but this takes much longer doing 1 cell of data at a time,
especially if you are trying to copy an entire column.

Anyone know what changed and how I can get around this issue?
