>Just a guess, but do you have the MS Edit portion of the menu available on screen #1? If so, when #2 is modal you may not be able to access the functionality of the menu on #1. Perhaps adding this menu to screen #2 would work?

I've found that I've changed, a long time ago, the name of the EDIT menu in my main application. In the [options] button beside the menu Edit. I've changed it back to _msm_edit and it works correctly now, cut and paste with modal. My screen will be modal now, wow!

Thank you very much, George, for your help.
