Hi John,
Further to my previous reply, I've done some testing. Here's a form I created to show the problem. It's a top level form, but I suspect that doesn't matter.
The cut/copy/paste doesn't work. So I'm doing something wrong.

(As a side note - it was *great* being able to create this code from visual code in a snap using the Class Browser - I hadn't tried that before, and I was thinking of emailing the .scx/t to you.)
