SYMPTOMS

When trying to copy and paste a text box DTC within a table onto the same page, the following runtime error is generated when switching to Quick View:

Object doesn't support this property or method.

CAUSE

This is due to the fact that the newly pasted control has the same name. In quick view, the script library is actually running and is raising a JScript exception due to two objects with the same name.

RESOLUTION

You can change the name of the second text box to make its name unique.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

From the Edit menu, click Copy.
Click outside the table and click Paste from the Edit menu. A new table is being created.
Switch to quick view.

A runtime text error occurs:

Object doesn't support this property or method.
