Cut and paste from an external source, not copying!
geeknerddork I've had this problem before, and if I recall correctly, it had something to do with my clipboard and available memory. I'd recommend clearing your clipboard, which is explained in detail here: https://pureinfotech.com/clear-clipboard-history-windows-10/
Some other sites that explain how to clear your clipboard recommend downloading a software program, but that's not necessary. The functionality is built right into Windows and is simple:
- Open Settings (Start > Settings icon)
- Click on System
- Click on Clipboard
- Under “Clear clipboard data,” click the Clear button
I'd also recommend restarting your computer and ensure you don't have excess programs open on your computer while you are trying to do this. I hope this fixes your problem!
Thanks for the quick response, but alas, no… I can cut and paste within the program. What is not pasting is from an external source which should be transferable! The program does work on another computer that I have, just won't copy and paste from a table in another program.
