Excel Copy Paste ISSUE HELP

Last response: in Applications
Share

Hello.

My name is Luke.

I've been working within Excel today and to my amazement I've been unable to copy cells from 1 page in the work book to another page.

Once I've selected copy from the first page and then tried to paste into the 2nd page of the work book it dosen't allow me an option to paste.

Is there anyone that can assist me with this problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks again,


Luke

More about : excel copy paste issue

I did try to post, but forums kept coming back saying that it was not availble then it came back as ( forums is currently down please try again later ) I had no idea that it actually posted through these errors sorry about that.

I'm able to copy all the data into a new excel sheet however because of the lenght of information spanding over 20 sheets this would be a lenghtly amount of time.

Is there anything you would be able to suggest other then this?

Of course if this is the only solution to a corrupt document I'd have to use this solution however I'm interested to find out what was the cause of this so I can hopefully stop this from happening in future work books.

Thanks again.

EDIT: ... error message again which double posted - FORUMS ARE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILBLE PLEASE TRY BACK LATER.

I have seen this happen only a few times, I have never found a fix for it, only way I got was a work-around of moving the data into another sheet.

Maybe this would work, open the sheet in OpenOffice program (www.openoffice.org), save it under a different name. Try opening it in Excel again. If that works, use this new version.
