Tried that a couple times and the object will not copy. My cut/paste works for objects on the form so I know the functionality is available. Anything else you can think of that would prevent it from working? I can probably just recreate the dropdown in a half-hour or so, but I know this should work and it's got under my skin now.

>>It doesn't seem to work for me. I've tried clicking on the grid, getting to the dropdown in the column via the property sheet, pressing ctrl-c, clicking on the 2nd grid, getting to the column where I want to paste and then pressing ctrl-v. The dropdown object does not copy. Obviously missing something...
