That happened to me once but a simple re-boot solved the problem.   :)

What operating system are you using?

I have solved this problem in Windows 98SE in the past by running the System File Checker.

Right, well if you can't do it either way - from the meun or with shortcuts, then I would have to suggest something is wrong with the clipboard! Although I'm not sure what there...

It is possible that the function has become corrupt - but I really have no idea on fixing that in XP, if thats what you have. 98 just useuse SFC.

But if that doesn't fix the solution, then there may be a program running that is somehow blocking the copy/paste functions??? Strange.


Can you see the options (in Edit menu) or are they "ghosted" as if you can't click on them?
