Go to Options and Work Environment... it is probably turned off in the profile you are using.. OR you could hold Ctrl while dragging and a little "+" will tell you you are drag/copying.. Hold shift also and you can let go of the keys and drag/copy will continue..

Larry... it's not just you! Many of the posts on ArchiCAD talk can be answered by going to the Help menu in ArchiCAD (Help/ArchiCAD help)

Just click on the "Search" tab; type in "drag a copy"; VOLIA!!!! (see picture attached). No fuss, no muss, no waiting for someone to answer your question on Archicad-Talk. Four mouse clicks, type in three words (as opposed to 19 words in your question (and god knows how many mouse clicks)) and chances were pretty good you would have the answer right away.

And Architalkers... the help menu in ArchiCAD 9 is the best of any version of ArchiCAD ever (I've been using ArchiCAD from version 3.something)
