Cut and Paste not working for specific client?

[Former Member]

Gui Gurus,

I have recently upgraded some users to Gui 710 Patch 8. However on one users install, she cannot copy and paste the entire content of a cell. For example:

If she copies aaaabbbbbccccdddd, she'll only get aaaabbbbbcccc. For some reason it gets truncated.

I have tried this on my identical install and can do the exact same cut and paste for the same input field fine. I did a reinstall of her Gui, but that did not help. I checked her user parameters and could not find anything to alter this behavior. I tried "Quick Cut and Paste" also, and that yielded the same incorrect results. I did not see anything else in the Options / I18N that would alter this?

Any ideas where to look?

Thanks,

Jeff Martens

Hello. Are this user have antivirus software ? May be it virus ) ? Try to patch on 9 patch level.

P.S. are you try it with your user/password in this "specific client" SAPGUI ? same situation? Are this user able

works on other SAPGUI (other PC) fine under his user/password ?

Hello Jeff,

what if you paste the text in e.g. Notepad? Is the text complete there?

Kind regards,

Good idea.....I had already tried it and it copied the entire / expected text.

Thanks,

Hello Jeff,

virus is not the problem, I'm sure.

How about the settings in the options dialog (ALT+F12 -> Options)?

Do you both have the last option in the "Expert" Tab switched on or off?

Which screenelement is it, where you do the Copy? ALV cell?

Kind regards, Martin

Martin,

Thanks for the reply. I did try the cut & paste option in the expert tab and that did not work.

I am copying from a normal user input field to another input field. This is not static text that you would have to CTRL+Y to copy.

Thanks,

Jeff
