My apologies for the lack of specificity.

I am using Windows 7 on a Lenova thinkpad, using the 32-bit version. From what I have seen, however, the problem seems to be more general than just with my specifications, and seems to be affecting all version 19 users.

At any rate, the difficulty I am having is with cutting and pasting within the data editor. I copy a few cells in spss and try to copy those values into other cells, but it refuses to copy.

In my situation, it is not copying, but I have read about spss changing values as well when pasting, similar to what Andrés mentioned.

I have read some testimonies about Patch 19.0.1 not working, but I will give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion.
