SUMMARY

In Microsoft Excel, you cannot choose the formula editing commands Paste Name and Paste Function while editing an Input dialog box.

Page 245 of the "Microsoft Excel Functions and Macros" version 2.2 manual incorrectly states that Paste Name and Paste Function can be selected while in the Input dialog box. These commands are grayed while the Input dialog box is active.

Other formula editing commands, such as Reference, Cut, Copy, Paste, and Clear, are available.
