[GNC] Edit Cut and Copy greyed out

[Tony Vanson]

A bit further to my mystery - the first time I open a register, and the
blank line on the bottom, with just the current date, is highlighted by
default, *Cut *and *Copy *are active and I can in fact use them, however if
I highlight a line with transactions, *Cut *and *Copy *are greyed out. In
all instances *Paste *is available? Any ideas welcome.
Cheers
