Exported To Excel - can't 'copy and paste'?

Hi All,

If I run a report (sales for this FY for a range of products for example) and export it into Excel, I'm finding that i can't then 'Copy & Paste' this data into another spreadsheet.

Is this just me & I have inadvertently changed a setting or something? Have been doing this for years without issue but something has changed recently?

Cheers,

Dave

  • Hi DaveKC,

     

    You’re right to ask, when something that used to work suddenly acts differently, it’s often because of an Excel or Windows update. It could also be multiple Excel windows open, cell/workbook protection, an add‑in conflict, or even a glitchy clipboard. I found this link that walks through steps to fix this, and it looks the same to what you’re experiencing.
