Weakness in the Cut / Copy Paste function of Excel 2007 Beta

[Mr. Low]

Dear Sir,

I have been using your MS Exel 2003 extensively lately for high volume data
works lately.

Previously I was using Corel Quatro-Pro worksheet.

I find that the Cut or Copy / Paste function is a bit clumsy in Excel 2003.
The cut or copied content does not retain in the memory after a key board
operation such as deleting, inserting column / row or data entry. The user
need to cut or copy the content all over again, if he forgets to omit those
key borad operations.

In Corel Spreadsheet, the cut or copied content remained in the memory after
any number of keyborad operations. This make the spreadsheet more flexible to
use. The spreadsheet work could be done more swiftly, it save a lot of time.
Surprisingly this area of weakness was not even corrected in the Excel 2007
Beta 1 which I downloaded sometime in June this year.

Anyway , I still have not tested your latest Beta 2 upgrades. If this new
feature is still not yet added, I hope you could bring it in before your
final release. In my opinion it certainly could improve its performance in
the market place.

Kind Regards

Low Seng Kuang

It sounds like you have not discoverd the Office Clipboard. Personally, I do
not use it in Excel but have found times in Word where cutting and
re-arranging was facilitated using the Clipboard. In excel go to Edit >
Office Clipboard.

The Office clipboard is a deprecated (no longer supported) feature of Office
2007.
