I have created an Access Front End Database that many people in one of the departments use. Each user has their own copy of the Front End on their Computer. The Back End is on a SQL Server.

On one of the forms I created a Duplicate Record Button using the Wizard in Access. I have ONE user who has trouble using this button.

She uses it to copy records over and over and over. Then she changes just a few pieces of data as needed.

She often gets one of two error messages:
The Clipboard isn't responding, so Commercial Workflow(name of DB) can't paste the Clipboard's contents.

or

The command or action 'PasteAppend' isn't available now.

I have tried to recreate these errors on my computer with my front end. My Front End is the master they copy from. But I can not recreate the error.

I did check a few things on her front-end and my front end and found 1 setting different
On the Clipboard there is an options button and the first setting “Show Office Clipboard Automatically" on my front end is not checked and hers was checked. I changed that and the next day she was still having problems.

I have done a lot of searching on this and I just keep coming up at a dead end. Can anyone out there help me?
