    Paste options greyed out

    Somewhere in this workbook is a macro or procedure that is preventing me from doing a copy and paste. There is no problem if I disable macros, but I can't figure out what is causing the problem.
    Please keep in mind that I am all but illiterate here. Basically, I steal bits of code here and there, often with your help, and try to beat them into submission.
    I am attaching the entire (depersonalized) workbook.
    The only macros or procedures are a userform, a button to call the userform, and a macro to open the workbook on sheet "DATA". I think I may have things in the wrong place or duplicates when I couldn't get something to work.
    Thanks for all you do!

    Re: Paste options greyed out

    Are you manually trying to copy and paste or via code?
    Have you unprotected the worksheet prior?
    Good Luck
    I don't presume to know what I am doing, however, just like you, I too started somewhere...

    Sorry, I stand corrected...

    My solution would not help your request. In fact I was unable to duplicate your error.
    - I was able to manually copy and paste new records.
    - I was able to manipulate the data by using the Entry Form

    Yes, I am trying to manually copy and paste, and yes the sheet is unprotected. This only happens in sheet "DATA".
    Further experimenting, I can copy from sheet "DATA" to another sheet in the workbook or another document. I just cannot paste anything into sheet "DATA", from any part of the workbook.
    I can paste from an external source.

    Try moving your command button out of the Used range and remove the Command Button reposition code......Should solve.
