Hi there, please forgive me if this has been answered before already. My problem is the following. Every once in a while when I use cut & paste in my Mathematica notebooks I ge this strange error messages like ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "MakeExpression::boxfmt: InputForm in MakeExpression[grCutoffHi, InputForm] is not a box formatting type. A box formatting type is any member of $BoxForms." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Visually there seems to be nothing wrong with the code that was cutted and pasted, but it must be somehow corrupted underneath. This only goes away if I then delete the part that was pasted and type it in from the keyboard by hand, which is sometimes quite annoying. Does anybode know how to resolve this? Oviously this is a bug in the Mathematica editor, but I was unable to spot a fix so far. BTW: I am using Mathematica Version Number: 5.0.0.0 on a Windows XP machine. Regard, Andi
