Paste from Excel hotfix available

in mid December an Excel security fix (MS08-074) broke paste from Excel inside Access. Users would get the following error message:

The data on the Clipboard is damaged, so Microsoft Office Access can't paste it. There may be an error in the Clipboard, or there may not be enough free memory. Try the operation again.

There is a hot fix now available that will fix the issue. Luke Chung has written about how you can work around the issue if you don’t have permissions to install the hot fix.
