Can't copy paste 1

[gomson]

I'm having a bit of a weird problem in Great Plains.
I can't get the right option to display in Great Plains when I right click. I can copy text from notepad into great plains, but I can't copy from great plains into anywhere else (including great plains). Also the copying that I tried was done using keyboard shortcuts and whenever I highlights text inside great plains and presses crtl+c, the text gets deleted instead of copy. The problem is just with Great Plains, everything else in my OS evironment works fine.

Any ideas???

We had some problems with copying from GP a while back. It just wouldn't copy (CTRL+C). It was limited to a single machine though, and we were in the middle of scheduled PC upgrades, so I just bumped that person up in the list and the new PC install fixed that - so that's probably not a help. Though it may be isolated to that user on the PC - so it could be a starting point.

I have noticed though, through GP right-clicking doesn't work. I think that is by design and no control has a context menu associated with it. Though it would make things much easier if they were there. (Feel free to let me know if I'm wrong here.)

We have this problem on two computers, only solution we found was, you could cut 'ctrl+x' and paste. then copy to your new location and back in the original as well.

You can use the Edit Menu to select Cut, Copy and Paste or the Ctrl-X, Ctrl-C & Ctrl-V shortcuts.

The main issue that I have seen when copying from Notepad is it will not work if you have included the carriage return at the end of the line when you copied or cut to the clipboard.
