Problems Copying in MS Excel ClipJump V12.5 #131

I started to use ClipJump V12.5 and I found that I can not copy cell or group of cells in MS Excel. However if I copy unformatted text from one cell in the MS Excel then I can copy cell or group of cells but only one time and the second time coping is fault. So I can copy formatted cell or group of cells only one time and only after coping unformatted text from one cell. I did not see such issue using ClipJump V12.0
Windows 7 x64, MS Excel 2007 x86

Same problem here. Both ClipJump v12.5 or v12.3, I can not copy a cell in MS Excel. When I try to copy a cell then paste it in another cell, ClipJump doesn't paste anything or pastes the previously copied content. So I think it does not copy from the excel cell. But ClipJump copy and paste from the excel formula bar works correctly. Any idea? Some info: Windows 10_x64, Ms Excel 2016_x64, ClipJump 12.5_x64

That's because Excel has known issues with CJ so code was added in 12.5 to specifically exclude any Excel windows as shown here:

If CALLER
    {
        STORE.CBCaptured := 0
        if !WinActive("ahk_class XLMAIN")
             try   clipboard_copy := makeClipboardAvailable() , ISACTIVEEXCEL := 0
        else try   clipboard_copy := LASTCLIP , ISACTIVEEXCEL := 1      ;so that Cj doesnt open excel clipboard (for a longer time) and cause problems 

Translation....if you hit the key in Excel - return the last clip.

Not sure how 12.3 got away with it, but I can't imagine rolling back with all the improvements in 12.5.
