Mourning the loss of our friend, WhitPhil.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but they're the easiest to answer.

Copy and Paste in Acess
I work in an admissions office. We are having problems when we copy and paste an old record to create a new record for a student who is coming in a different semester then originally intended. The specific problem is once we copy and create a new record some of the information on the original record we copied from disappears. Any one have any clue as to why it is doing this and how we can fix it? We have not had any problems with this until recently

Thanks

This belongs in the Business Applications or General Software forum (a mod will be along shortly ). You need to give more information on the application environment or database and how the record is stored. As posed, your question is far too generic to expect any useful advice.

Have you a Backup Copy?
Have you Compacted & repaired the database?
There are better ways of reproducing a record than using Copy & Paste.
