Default Copy from one file to another

I've had instances of Copy/Paste fail, and only log off/log in gets it
working properly again.

The paste works fine between multiple sheets within the same workbook.

Is the "Paste" on the Home tab working? Is it only a single Worksheet
affected, or workbook, or any pair of workbooks?

It was on the clipboard and I can paste from there. Still no PasteSpecial
options, but this helps.

Thank you!

Open the Clipboard pane and observe whether something is there following
a Copy. Also there was some third party software that breaks Copy/Paste
mentioned recently, do you have any add-ins?

Both files are in the same Excel window. Still no paste available.

Frequently this is because the user has each file opened in a separate
instance of Excel. Try opening both files in the same Excel window.

In MS 2007 I cannot copy the contents of a cell in one workbook to a cell in
another workbook. There is no paste function when I go to the other
workbook. It seems to be a problem with 2007. Does anyone else have
this problem and is there a fix?
