I'm not going to debate copy/paste usage. My only other suggestions
are workarounds:

1) Can you do something else while Excel is processing?
2) Can you rewrite your code so it runs better/faster?
3) Can you run the code from a dedicated "Reports Only" machine?

Hi JP, the problem with using Office clipboard is that it alreays shares the
last item with the Windows clipboard. Essentially, Windows clipboard is also
altered when you copy anything to office clipboard.

My problem is primarily that user in foreground cannot use their clipboard
as usual (Who can give up the copy/paste nowadays?). And, it would be a big
issue if Excel gets wrong data pasted into the report. Data security is not a
problem for me.
