    2010 pasting query

    I've recently encountered a problem from a user who is reporting having problems pasting into some cells on a specific tab on a spreadsheet.

    The user can still type stuff into the cells, but just can't paste into them. the paste icon appears, repeated presses results in nothing happening. I've tried pasting into different tabs and documents and has no problems. I've checked the tab permissions and they are all the same.

    The office app has been activated.

    they might be locked, but then they user would be able to type anything inside those cells. Any ideas as what else i could try to bring back paste functionality to those cells?

    Can you post the workbook, or a sample that exhibits the problem?

    thanks for the quick reply. Due to the sensitive nature of the document in question i can't upload the spreadsheet, i'll try and grab screen grabs of the pic once i get hold of the user again.

    a screen grab is unlikely to assist much in the diagnosis. Can you limit the sample to the problem sheet and anonymise the data it contains?

    Thank you for the reply. It appears my user has resolved the issue, turned out some of the formulas had been set up incorrectly or were changed during migration. Well, its all working now. Thanks for your help!
