Default Copy & Paste

Hi,

I am using Excel 2003. In my one Excel file of 23,186 kb size, if I copy
from one sheet and try to paste into another sheet, nothing happens. Whereas
if it is in the same sheet I can paste. What can be the reason? Any idea?

Thanks & Regards

Are the two sheets in the same workbook, or in different workbooks? If the
latter, are they open in different instances of Excel? If so, change to
opening them both from the same instance of Excel.

If not that, are the worksheet or workbook protected?

1) If the the target(!) sheet is protected - which will disable pasting - an
appropriate pop-up alert should be seen.
2) There should be no problem to copy/paste from two instances of Excel.
3) Could you be more precise and explain - in details - what (and how) you
are trying to do...

Hi,

Thanks for your replies.

Both the sheets are in the same workbook and neither the workbook nor the
sheets are protected. But when I opened the file in another pc the function
copy/paste was working. I don't know what happened to my Excel.

I'm note sure this will help but you have nothing to loose - run "Search &
Detect" from the "Help" Menu.
When finished - close and re-open "Excel".
