>I did convert the menu to 7.0 and yes it was the edit menu. No luck. I find it quite weird myself. When I highlight the text I only get a choice to cut not copy. Its strange.

Modify the menu. Click on the Menu pad in the VFP system menu, then click Generate to create a current MPR. MODI COMM the .MPR file. Does the code look something like:

DEFINE BAR _med_cut OF (a_menupops[3]) PROMPT "Cu\<t" ;
	KEY CTRL+X, "Ctrl+X" ;
	MESSAGE "Removes the selection and places it onto the Clipboard"
DEFINE BAR _med_copy OF (a_menupops[3]) PROMPT "\<Copy" ;
	KEY CTRL+C, "Ctrl+C" ;
	MESSAGE "Copies the selection onto the Clipboard"
DEFINE BAR _med_paste OF (a_menupops[3]) PROMPT "\<Paste" ;
	KEY CTRL+V, "Ctrl+V" ;
	MESSAGE "Pastes the contents of the Clipboard"
