Dieter, there was no error value - all I got was "The object xxxx does not support this operation" and the trace below. I created the object the same way as I did 4 other objects and this is the only one that cant be copied/pasted or renamed. I could send you all my code but I did not want you to have go through all the code for me. I just want hints as to what affects the ability to copy/paste an object.
