Hi Paul,

I'll lead off with the obvious questions:

Is this latest attempt to paste data from Excel involving a larger dataset?
If so, have you tried copying a portion of the data (i.e. a few rows)?
Have you tried restarting your browser or (ideally) restarting your PC?
Have you tried a different browser?
Does the Excel you are copying from have more formulas than usual, underlying VBA or links to other workbooks?

I have to keep scrolling back down to the row to see what I have keyed in. Very annoying…
