Copy/paste no longer working in Excel
- I’d recommend that everyone having thus issue goes to File > Feedback and send a frown, putting your details in the section and start it [Can’t Copy Paste]
Also what version is everyone in who’s having this problem ? File > Account
It will read something like
Semi Annual Channel
Build 1234.567

Wyn Hopkins In my opinion when i had this problem today, copying and pasting from between Excel and UltraStudios text editor for example, to resolve this in Excel I clicked the small Clipboard button
Thats the tiny grey button bottom right corner of the image above in the Home ribbon bar "Clipboard"
Any then on the bottom left corner of Excel
Make sure its set with "Show Office Clipboard Automatically" checked and "Collect Without Showing Office Clipboard" and then it began to behave properly, copying and pasting in and out of excel, no more issues.
HTH
Thank you for looking at this Joseph. I do have that selected. Here is an example of 11 lines of one column I tried to cut-and paste. The message I get in the lower right corner is could not be copied to the clip board because it is too much data. However these selects from paint are fitting in the clipboard just fine. I can cut and paste from every other app including the powershell command line, but not excel.
