Thank you Claus,



Your code is of cource shorter, but it does not solve the main problem. When the code runs it grayes out the Clipboard tool. Only Paste as image is available.

By default, executing VBA clears the Clipboard of its current contents.

Well Garry,

It seems that this is not quite the truth. You can have lot of code in the Worksheet_SelectionChange() procedure, still the Clipboard is not cleared = you can use copy/paste.

In fact, programatically affecting the properties of the embedded ActiveX control clears the clipboard. This fact is partly discussed in the link below:

I think I'd better explicitely activate the ActiveX control, when needed.
