Excel 2002: Why occationally crashes upon pasting data ? Mr. Low 12/31/2008 5:02:01 PM Hi, Wishing you a Happy New Year 2009. My Excel 2002 is running on Window 2000 Terminal Service Client Servers. Frequently I need to copy data in Excel format generated by another business system and paste it to a working file. Occationally the destination worksheet terminate itself upon pasting the datas and send error messages to MS. It then recovers back the lost file. Many time this process hung halfway. I need to restart back Excel to continue working. May I know what might have cause this problem and how could I overcome this ? Thanks Low -- A36B58K641

If it is always certain contents, file size, number of "copy/paste" sequences, you may learn how to avoid it.

The first thing I would do is try a different printer. It doesn't have to be connected, but the driver has to be installed. Lots of crashes in excel come back to printer driver issues.
