This does not work. It still Pops up. Microsoft help says to click options when it pops up to deactivate. However, it pops up the next time one selects copy twice. Microsoft: I want the option to permanently diactivate the display of the Paste task pain (pun intended.)

Try ToolsOptionsEdit. Uncheck "show paste options button".

Gord.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I have that unchecked. Microsoft has numerous task panes of that type that pop up that are a nusiance that have no way of being disabled permenantly. I work with many people that are frustrated by the lack of control of these "informational" tools that cause extra mousing and clicking. A suggestion: On each informational pane that pops up, put a selection button that says "Don't show again" and mean it (by that I mean don't ever show it again uless the users goes in the ToolsOptions and reselects it.) I know the Paste task pane has a version of this option but it is over-ridden somehow. In the case of the Paste Task Pane, I haven't talked to one analyst that uses it and most are irritated that it shows up at all. Most don't care to do pastes from copy commands 6 commands ago! Make it an option to show! Another task pane that shows up is when one completes the Pivot Table and the selections appear in a Task Pane. That is an irritant because the only action I (and others, I'm sure) ever do with it is close it. If I want to add to my Pivot Table, changes are a simple right click away. The way it is now, I have to mouse and click to close the selection every time. That is a waste of time. And I use Pivot tables a lot! Thank you. "Gord Dibben" wrote: Timmy Try ToolsOptionsEdit.
