Copy and Paste blues.....

After running a macro utilising 'copy' and 'paste', the message, "Select destination and press ENTER or choose paste" remains in the Status Bar after the macro has finished. Even worse, should the user press ENTER as instructed, the last bit of copied data is pasted into the whatever is the current active cell!

Is there any way of sending an ESCape code or similar to cancel this destructive tendency? If this has been covered before, I apologise. Many thanks for your patience.

Terry.
