This just started yesterday. I can Copy objects on a form, but it won't let me paste them. In fact, the paste option is disabled when I right-click to do so. So bizarre. Copy/paste works outside VFP.
I've applied Windows Updates recently. That's the only change in the system, afaik.
Anybody ever seen this before?
Is the scx or sct file read only? Are you attempting to paste on an item that is not a container?

Mike, try running VFP with admin rights.... just to see if it is a permissions issue.

Are you copying objects from a class on a form?

Check ownership and permission of all files in the program installation folder?

That fixed the Paste issue. Bizarre. Why all of the sudden would this be an issue?!?!??
It is and in most cases it works. However, because the file I was trying to show was so big, Excel somehow burped and setting it to visible before opening the file made the problem disappear.
Thanks to all of you for your comments

My wonder is why anything changed?!?
I'm going to uninstall VFP and reinstall it.

Found the culprit!!!! The VFP Temp folder was set to C:\ for some reason. Changing it to C:\TEMP fixed it. Odd that it got reset to the root folder. Not sure why, but in reviewing my Tools - Options - File Locations, when I saw the Temp folder was the root, I figured that was wrong and most likely the culprit. Mystery solved!
Thanks for the suggestions anyway! --Mike
