When running a macro (that ran within XL 2000) within 2003. We get the above error message and when debugged its highlighting the following command:-
ActiveSheet.Paste

Can you try selecting the sheet first, just in case it does not know the
'activesheet'

I suspect XL has lost what it wanted to paste. You don't show us the code
for copying, but if you do much after you have copied the chances are XL
will lose it's clipboard. (It doesn't work like most other apps). For
example, I expanded your code to copy a cell from Sheet1 A1 and it works ok.
Take the comment mark (') out of the application.cutcopy..... line and you
will get the error as I have replicated XL losing it's clipboard contents
Sub test()
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Copy
'Application.CutCopyMode = False
Sheets("Sales 2004").Select
ActiveWindow.LargeScroll ToRight:=-4
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-46
Range("O44").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

Nick,
The application.cutcopymode command appears near the bottom of the file after it has tried to copy the selected cells. See full Macro below (==> indicates mark when entering debug). I've tried recording a similar macro to do the same thing. But when I've looked at the macro the ActiveSheet.Paste command isn't in the script! When added I still get the same message as above.

Can you right click on it, select properties? If it shows a sheet of
properties, change the TakeFocusOnClick one to false. If it doesn't show a
sheet of properties then you have the old 'forms' version. Let us know...we
will fix this ;-)

When I right click I don't get a Properties option!
I have a feeling this could be a drawing box rather than a command control box!!
