Ah ... now I understand! I don't think copy and past can work with excel!! (consider I'm not at all a microsoft guru)
But it works (at least is supposed to work) from and to a CSV opened in Chirp.
Try this: 1 start Chirp 2 menu File - Open 3 in the file type selection box, which is close to Open button, select CSV Files then go to your existing saved CSV and open it 4 download from radio as usual 5 go to the new tab 6 select some (or all) special channels 7 copy 8 go back to the CSV tab 9 select a line and paste
optionally you can create a blank CSV in Chirp with File - New.
If you plan to use excel to modify CSV remember that the file must have the correct structure to be managed by Chirp and Excel is known to alter files, ask to microsoft experts for details.

Marco,
Sorry about not being specific.
Steps were:
- Open existing saved CSV
- Created second tab
- Started Chirp
- Downloaded from radio
- Clicked Special Channels
- Cntl-A for select all (also repeated this step, with selective lines
which did not include the numbered memories) 7. Cntl-C for copy 8. Move to A1 cell of second tab in CSV, and Cntl-V for paste 9. Error was Microsoft double beep indicator and nothing got pasted.
My radio is on my boat, so it will be another hour before I'm there to try the 2/10/16 build. I will attempt to the paste (8) into a word or text document to see if it was an Excel issue (It was getting late, and I should have thought about that last night).

Hi Walt please try to be more specific: What happen (or not happen) exactly when you try to copy the Special Memories? What are the steps required to reproduce the problem? Also see if there's any error indication in debug.log and send it to me.
