I copy a lot of screen shots on the internet (Firefox) in order to crop them and use them in Excel. ONLY LAST WEEK did I start having this problem. I use the ALT+PRT SCR option to select what's on one monitor (I have dual) and then usually have no problem pasting into Excel. All of a sudden last week I started getting an error message "Microsoft Office Excel cannot paste the data."
I tried clearing out the clipboard in Excel and the ALT+PRT SCR option will either show a black image in the clipboard, or the clipboard will show "item not collected."
Why is this happening just now? I've been running 2007 for more than 6 months...never had a problem until now.
