Pasting into comments field?

S

Spalding

When I copy something and then go to paste it into the comment field
(Edit Comment) , paste is grayed out. Why is that? Is there an option
I can set to make it active? I didn't see anything obvious in
Tools>Options.

Depends on what you copied.

Try copying the text from the formulabar, then you'll see the paste option
inside the comment.

Great! Thanks, Dave.

I did notice right after I posted that than I can copy from comment to
comment. I was trying to paste cells from Excel, and it works using
your advice.

Now to push my luck, would there be any way to copy a two cell
selection at once? No big deal if not, I can just do it twice, but it
is a "nice to have" thing.

I'd hit an intermediate application first--maybe notepad so I could even edit
the string.

But I'd still be doing the copy twice.
