Many thanks to geekpm and Rich Kurtz for responding so quickly. Fortunately I have
managed to recover the situiation without using REGEDIT or System Restore. I found
a spurious program entry in Add/Remove Prpgrams (not sure why), and when I REMOVED
that program, my problem with EDIT/ Copy disappeared. All rather weird but thanks
again to geek and Rich.
Cheers
PL
