Strange behaviour - loading Excel clears Clipboard
Has anyone else experienced this strange behaviour with Excel clearing the
Clipboard ? For example, if I copy a formula from a post in the NG to work with it and then load Excel, the Clipboard is cleared. I have to go back to the post, copy the data again and paste it into Excel. I tried this with Word and that seems OK ... until I load Excel and the data is gone. The only thing that I can think of is that I downloaded and installed the Office 2007 Beta. I didn't overwrite my existing copy of Office 2003. I decided I didn't much like the new GUI in the Beta copy and I had a few problems so I've uninstalled it. Any thoughts on what I can do to make it better ... do I need to uninstall and re-install Office 2003 ? Thanks Trevor |

Strange behaviour - loading Excel clears Clipboard
What you see is normal, to my knowledge. Excel will clear the clipboard
with many actions that occur. As far as justification for it? I have no idea. Otto "Trevor Shuttleworth" wrote in message ...
