RDC / Excel 2K3 "cannot empty clipboard"
I would like to report this error, but I cannot find a
better place than this. If you know where I can reply, please let me know. Here is the error I am seeing: This is an inconsistent repro, however it has been seen several times. I have only tested on one account, and a single pair of machines. Issue: Excel generates a "cannot empty clipboard" error dialog when copying used via Remote Desktop Connection (RDC). Version info: OS XPSP1 ( both computers ) Excel 2003 (ver 11.5612.5703) Using domain account. Both machines using logged on as same account. Repro: View an xp machine using RPC. On that connection: Open 2 different Excel books. Create a row with the following formats: 1/2 of cells are horizontal test alligned other half are normally alligned. Cells have a border change ( under format cells ) Paste this into second spreadsheet On first spread sheetselect something else to copy. press Ctl-V or Edit\Copy Expected: Earlier selected rows will unselect. Newly selected rows will get selection laso around it. The contents of the row will be placed in the clipboard. Actual: Earlier selected rows still selected The contents of the row will be placed in the clipboard. Clipboard contents unchanged. Error dialog pops up: Title "Microsoft Excel" Body "Cannot empty clipboard." If user closes RDC, and uses original machine to continue, this succeeds. |
