Bizarre happening... copy and paste don't work.

Robin J Giltner — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 10:10:05 GMT

While finishing up our program here, it had been brought to our attention that the Edit Menu items, Copy, Paste, and Cut don't seem to work at all. Upon investigating, we've also noticed that even using the windows default shortcut keys for cut, copy, and paste (ctrl-c, ctrl-x, ctrl-v respectively) don't work either. But using the context menu on the mouse does work properly.

The application is a Main form, with lots of child forms, and I thought that might have something to do with it, so I dropped a standard windows textbox on the main form to try copying/pasting. Again no joy.

Anyone ever have this problem, and/or know of a way to fix this?

Thanks

Another Interesting tidbit, shift-ctrl-c, and shift-ctrl-v work fine with copy and paste. But no ctrl-c, and ctrl-v.

I hadn't thought to check the Shift-Insert, Control-Insert. But those are working properly.

Also, i went through almost all of the samples shipped with Strataframe and they all seem to be working fine, and there isn't any code behind catching the ctrl-c/v etc so I wasn't thinking it was a Strataframe issue, just something we've mistakenly done or some setting has been changed in Visual Studio, not really sure.

I'll keep pounding.

Thanks,

I was checking several of our applications, and the shortcut keys all seem to work just fine... I have no idea, Robin, sorry... just out of curiosity, do the other shortcut keys work, like Ctrl+Ins (Copy), Shift+Ins (Paste), Shift+Delete (Cut)?
