HELP!!! Bad parameters prompt

Hi all,

I'm having a pretty weird problem in Archicad. I copied details from File A to File B, each in its own detail window last week. But today after trying to import them into Plotmaker, these were blank. So I tried to copy them from File A to File B again and it seemed to work. But when I tried copying from one detail window to another within File B the "paste" option was deactivated. Then I closed the file and when I opened and I got a prompt saying "Some elements were deleted because of bad parameters. (105)" and all the details in their detail windows had disappeared leaving only the dimensions. I checked File A, there was no prompt and all details were still intact.

Thanks.

How exactly did you copy the details?

I selected all the elements using Ctl+A, then Ctl+C and Ctl+P to copy and paste.

I thought CTRL+P is Print, Paste is usually CTRL+V.
But you might have modified your keyboard shortcuts.

I meant Ctl+V.
