Are you copying from a excel sheet that was generated by Sage?
- Nino0415Jan 13, 2023Copper ContributorNo. This is the general problem which occurs on several PCs and on any/own excel workbooks/sheets.

I receive it when I copy data from a Sage generated sheet sometimes. WHat happens if you just paste, do you then get the chance to use import wizard ? I'd test it, but I'm just not sitting at the right place today- Nino0415Jan 13, 2023Copper ContributorWhen Cut or Copy then it's visible that the Clipboard is filled in. But, when try to Paste with Paste Special... options the first Screenshot appears. Ordinary Copy/Paste from keyboard Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V works, but the same interestingly happens with Ctrl-X/Ctrl-V. Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V and Enter in another cell does not work since the dashed moving border does not persist around copied/cut cell.
Mouse right click actions are not persistent too... Sometimes have been performed, sometimes focus just jumps to another empty cell. All the time Clipboard is regularly filled-in.
