Can't figure out why paste is greyed out

I inherited a workbook. I understand why whomever created it wouldn't want people to paste into it, but I own it now and I need to.

The workbook is unprotected.

Macros are off.

I unlocked the cells.

I am using a licensed version of full Excel 2007.

What else could be stopping me from pasting? Cut and Copy are available, Paste is greyed out everywhere.


Thanks in advance!

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Have you tried copying first?

Paste will not be available to use if you have no valid copied data in the clipboard.

Ohhh...that must be it...The macros must be stopping me from pasting when they're running, but I got lazy and stopped copying when troubleshooting :) Thanks!
