Paste is disabled

[stuart_adair]

Hello all,

Hopefully this is a nice simple one for you clever people...

I've got a form on a database and the paste function is disabled. Copy works ok and I can copy from a field to another application to I know thats ok.
I cant see anything obvious on the form properties that would disable paste.

Help !!!

This most likely means that the underlying query on your form is not an updateable query. To test this try and open it from the control centre and then try to change something in a field. The status bar should tell you that this record is not updateable.
