Copy to Clipboard

[userbeck82]

I am having a problem with the Copy function when using AutoCAD. When I to copy objects it comes up with the error "Copy to Clipboard Failed). I have posted this same question in an AutoCAD forum and have been directed to a Windows forum as apparently this is a Windows function. I can use both Copy and Paste functions in Word and Excel with no problems however when trying to Copy in AutoCAD it does not work.
Any advice/things to try would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

i think that your OS, (vista?) can't support autocad objects . I suggest use XP, it's already trusted to work..

Thanks ribonzz, I am on a work computer at a big company so cannot change the OS - it is Vista that they have.
