It was working earlier today. Tried to copy from one file to another....which
i do all day and nothing happens. THe computer is only 2 days old and I have
never experienced a similar issue. I tried shutting down and rebooting still

the same sheet but not to another file. Please help

Is the other file open in the same instance of XL or are you running multiple
instances. That can cause problems...

Hi Jim,

I get the same problem, usually when I'm copy/pasting from 2 separate
instances of XL.

What's the issue and is there a fix?
