    Hallo.

    I am trying spread 8 on vb6.

    I pasted a clipboard content to any cell of spread several times on windows 7 and windows 10.

    On windows 7, it succeeded.

    But on windows 10, it failed. Nothing appeared after pressing control v.

    Please help.

    Thanks

    Hi John,

    I could not replicate the issue at my end. The copied text appears correctly on pasting. Please refer to the attached application demonstrating the same.

    Can you please modify it and share back so that I can reproduce the problem at my end and investigate further? Also, share the build version of Spread that you are using.

    Thanks.

    Spread.zip

    Hi,

    I attached is the exe file.

    Please run it on windows 10.

    Type a text on one cell and copy it to clipboard.

    Then try paste many times to other cells.

    Of about 15 pastes, only one worked.

    Sometimes failed at all.

    Regards,

    John

    Hi,

    1. I clicked the box “Drag and drop attachments here. File size limit is 5 MB. Images and ZIPs only” below box “post reply”

    2. After clicked the file name, the box displayed the zip information ( 4.5KB Project1.zip). But the check and cross buttons below it looked inactive.

      Maybe there is some thing wrong on this page.

    3. I continued to click post reply box

    Note :

    If the zip file doesn’t appear, please create the exe file yourself from the project.

    I found the problem on exe file.

    I did not try it on ide. I do not have vs6 installed on windows 10.

    Hi,

    I verified the behavior on a Win 10 machine at my end. However, the paste works fine. I tried 15-20 times and the paste worked correctly in all instances.

    I compiled the application in Win 10 environment and also, tried by running the exe directly.

    Can you please share in which environment you are creating the exe for this application? What is the locale of the machine used?

    Any additional information provided to reproduce the issue at my end would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Strange !

    Today I found 2 different results with the experiment a few days ago.

    On my pc, pasting works normally.

    On my laptop, I had to press control v two times to get the a result.

    I have uploaded the sread.zip file.

    Jpg files about: windows sysinfo, location and running the exe.

    Regards

    Hi John,

    Thanks for sharing the files.

    I tried changing some settings at my end and also tried replicating the behavior on few other machines with exactly the same environment as yours. However, it does not reproduce. The copy-paste works fine every time.

    I doubt the problem is specific to the laptop, in question. Does any other application (without Spread) work normally on this machine? Can you please try copying in a fresh VB6 application and see if the behavior is fine with controls other than Spread? This would help us in isolation of the problem.

    Thanks,

    Pragati

    Please continue the case there in order to avoid any confusion further.
