Do you want to replace the destination cells?
 
Hi
When copying and pasting in a spreadsheet I am getting the message
"Do you want to replace the destination cells"
I don't know why this message has started to appear, I must have hit
something.
Anyone know how to fix please?

In 2007, click the fat button in the upper left of the screen. Then click
the Excel Options in the lower right. Then click Advanced. Then clear the
alert.

I am using Excel2003 (SP3) on a PC and I have this problem. It's coming up
when using copy (or cut) and paste, NOT drag&drop. I've tried unchecking the
option related tod&d anyway (via tools/options/edit) but it happens either
way. From what I've read, it's NOT supposed to be giving a warning... ?

Interestingly, if I copy/cut one cell, it does not warn me. If i try two or
more, it has the warning box.

Anyone know how to fix in this version, or am I stuck with an incredibly
annoying "feature"?
