Thanks Sean, that is a good thought but this is happening with every
worksheet/workbook. Even the new ones I create -- they are not protected.

I no longer have the Paste or Paste Special options in my EDIT menu. I have
checked and under Tools - Options - Edit the "Show Paste Options button" is
selected but even when I do a copy (CTRL + V), the Paste & Paste Special menu
items are not available. I cannot use the shortcuts for Paste Special
either. How do I recover this functionality?

I have tried turning off the "Show Paste Options" button & then turning it
back on, but that didn't make any difference.
