Maybe you have a stuck key? The Shift key or Caps Lock? Try logging off
and back on.

Most likely you have opened the two workbooks in two (separate) instances of
Excel.

Close one workbook, and open it through Excel Open menu ... and let us know
if it solves your problem.

What version of Excel are you using?

Fix your caps lock key.

Could there be a Workbook_Activate or related event procedure that runs when
sheets are activated or deactivated? This may cause the problem, because
running code will wipe out the clipboard.
