Cannot use Quick Paste Menu in Microsoft Access

<< < (2/3) > >>

It is text I am referring to, not format. Copying text using Ctrl+C and pasting using Ctrl+V works fine, but the same thing done using CH+S does not work (only sometimes it works, but I can't figure out exactly when and why).

Perry Mowbray:
Just had a quick bash in Excel, thinking they'd be similar if not identical, and this is what happened:

Cannot use Quick Paste Menu in Microsoft Access


* Entered simple 2 col & 6 row, and copied.
* Moved active cell 3 right, and pasted using CH&S: OK
* Moved active cell 3 right, and pasted using CH&S: Not OK
* Re-Establish Clipboard Chain
* Moved active cell 3 right, and pasted using CH&S: OK

Sorry, was assuming from first post that it was not just text, but cells and rows from a table:

I want to copy/paste data between tables and/or forms.-bgd77 (April 06, 2009, 10:03 AM)

When you copy something in windows it often exists in a number of different formats on the clipboard. The receiving programme will use the most appropriate format: that's how the same clipboard contents will be inserted as text into NotePad and a formated table in Excel.

I'm not sure how Excel and Access are separating cells, rows, etc.

bgd77:
No problem, Perry. I should have specified that I try to copy only text.

What is really strange is that I have no problem copying in Excel with CH+S.

Perry Mowbray:
Selecting Re-establish Clipboard Chain fixed my Excel issues: does it help yours?
