Hi,
I am having trouble with something that seems rather simple. I recently changed the design of a database. The Users use to be able to copy from a form and paste in a word document. After the design Refresh they may no longer do so. I verified the check box in all the fields so as they are not set to hide when copying to the clip board. There user acces is set to reader. Any suggestions as to where I should look next? Thanks, Bryce.

I have seen an issue (not sure which R6 version though) whereby if the Notes client is not the first application opened by the user then the copy/paste functions do not work. Is weird but getting the affected user(s) to log off and then start the Notes client first resolved it. I believe this specific error is fixed but like I say sorry I cant remember the exact versions.

well through the design client you can disable printing/copying to clipboard throught the last tab on the form properties box. Check there or have a designer look for you.

Thnks for the reply! I checked that as well before posting… I don’t understand why it’s not working! there are other field on the form which are hidden… the only thing that shows up is a few labels, but all the info from the fields does not past… they can past to a notes memo but not to a notepad or word document.

In addition to that, there is an ACL permission level now that prevents copying, replicating and printing. All of these work essentially the same way – by creating a field on the document called $KeepPrivate with a value of “1”. So, in addition to checking the form properties, the ACL, and the form design, you’ll need to check the document properties to look for a $KeepPrivate field.
