In XP Pro, unable to COPY from Excel into FIND window in ACCESS

I frequently need to cross-check items that are in Excel spread sheets and Access
databases. A very convenient way to do so has been to COPY the contents of a cell
in the Excel spreadsheet and PASTE the item into the FIND WHAT section of the FIND
& REPLACE window of Access. This has worked without problems when working with the
following configurations:
WIN NT and Office 97;
WIN NT and Office 2000;
WIN 98 SE and Office 97.
Unfortunately since I converted to WIN XP PRO and Office 2002, the PASTE part of
the operation does not work – instead a message pops up saying “What’s This”, and
I am then forced to type the desired material into the FIND WHAT window.
I would be very grateful for any advice on how to solve this problem.
