An error (318) occurred during the action Copy.
Hi
I am running Visio 2002 SP2 (10.0.5110) and have been creating a set of drawings in a Visio document. Recently I started getting errors as a popup when I attempt to copy or duplicate any component from any tab. An example of the error is: Quote:
I am using the current UML stencils by Pavel Hruby that I downloaded and installed. Visio Stencil and Template for UML 2.0. I have been using the stencils for years but only recently had this Visio problem. Most of my drawings use, and have been using, Pavel's stencils. I really like the stencils that he developed. I can copy whole drawings (by not selecting any component). But I get the error if I select one or more components and try to copy or duplicate the components. Pasting from the clipboard (eg. text copied from another program) works no problem. I feel it is a introduced problem with SP2. Is there a work around? Can I fix my corrupted drawing? |

With more experimenting, I realise that the problem is only with one component type. The problem occurs with the UML 'straight relationship from Pavel Hruby UML stencils. I reiterate that I have been using Pavel's stencils for years and this is a recent problem. I have several UML drawings on different tabs in the one Visio drawing document using this component type 'straight relationship. On drawings with this component type, I can copy whole drawing (by not selecting any component and selecting the copy command). Other component types (eg. activities, notes, classes) I put on the same drawing I can copy, duplicate, paste and delete without error. The error is reproducible across the drawings in the Visio drawing document and after I save the document, restart Visio and attempt to copy and duplicate the component type again. I have also seen this problem in more than one Visio drawing document. The Visio drawing document corrupts silently and you only know of the corruption once you get the error. Any ideas? |
