Copy/Paste from one cell into multiple cells doesn't work.

[eric5605]

Hello, I am trying to copy one cell and paste that text (one word) into multiple cells below it. If I copy/paste into one cell, no problem. However, if I select a cell to copy then go below that and select multiple cells to paste into (that same word), the paste option is greyed out. I've tried rebooting, new workbooks and looked for solutions online, no luck. These are just "General" type cells and pasting a word copied in one cell into multiple cells below it that are also "General" format. Any suggestions? Thanks

Are the target cells protected perhaps ?

Thanks for the response. I double checked and the cells aren't protected. I did another reboot and that seems to have solved the issue. Thanks again.
