only the keyboard shortcut ctrl C doesn't work. clicking to copy does. once
it's on the clipboard, Ctrl v will paste. Ctrl c works in Excel, and copying
from web pages.

problem just started.

Thanks.

Check the Shortcut Key dialog to see if it's been assigned to something else
(or just unassigned).

Thanks for your reply.

I checked the dialog box, and discovered that the command for "copying text"
was Shift f2. That worked for a while, but now it is 6 hours later, and that
doesn't work any more. I tried to reassign ctrl +c, but it said that would
wipe out any other ctrl +c commands.

thanks

But since you don't use any other ctrl-c commands, and it seems to
have gotten changed by accident, why would that be a problem?

Why did the Shift F2 also stop working? it is still assigned for copying,
and it worked for several hours after I started using it. Apparently it is a
standard alternative command.

I will try re assigning ctrl c.
