Paste Special Menu

[chanse44]

When I click on the paste special menu like always it now brings up the
hyperlink menu (paste bitmap, etc.) rather than the paste special menu of
(all, formulas, values, etc.). How do i get the correct menu back? Clipboard
is clean.

This is most likely due to the fact that your workbooks are opening in
separate instances. To confirm open the first workbook then open the second
from the FILE->OPEN option from within Excel. You should not get the problem
in this case.

To fix try re-registering Excel...close XL first, then Start | Run | Type:

regsvr32 /u Excel.exe ...and click OK
regsvr32 Excel.exe ...and click OK

You might have to designate a full path to Excel.exe. In that case...Start |
Run | Type:

C:\yourpath\excel.exe /regserver ...i.e. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\Excel.exe" /regserver

You'll get the "Preparing to install" message and the "Please wait while
configuring etc."
