Hello,
I have a spreadsheet in Excel 2003 and have the following problem.
Details. It is a protected worksheet, but the malfunction occurs whether
it's protected or unprotected.

Whenever I try to copy (works fine and is visible in the toolbar) an item
(formula, words, etc) I am able to use the edit copy command or the control
c command.
I'll go to my cell where I want to paste it and the paste function isn't
operational and neither is the control v.

Whenever I open another "new" worksheet the copy/paste functions work fine.

Since this a is pretty complex worksheet that I had some assistance on
building I don't know where to start.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be, or would someone be
will to take a look at it for me to see if it can be fixed.

Thanks
Bob Reynolds

Your problem is that you have a selection event to color the active cell
which does not allow the copy. Put a 1 in cell A4 and insert this in the
first line of your selection event

if range("a4")=1 then exit sub
