Framemaker10: can't cut and paste tables, rows, or columns

Jun 6, 2012 12:13 PM

When I select a table row, copy, and then try to paste it as a new row, only text pastes in. When I Edit>Paste Special, the only options provided are Text and Unicode Text.

I used to be able to cut and paste rows but that is no longer an option. Has anyone experienced this? Know a fix?

Editing my maker.ini files does not fix it.

    Exactly how are you attempting to copy/paste?

     

    For a whole table, I select the marker, copy, paste wherever.

     

    For a row, I'm able to position my cursor in a row, highlight the row, then paste either at the end of that table or separately.

     

    Haven't tried columns, but they probably work the same way.

    This has probably been fixed by the discovery that a Skype toolbar plug-in messes up the clipboard's ability to copy/paste text - it's been found to be the culprit in a couple of other threads on the forum.

    Suzy2001, thanks for the help but Jeff_C. is correct. It turns out Skype Toolbar is the culprit.
