Can't copy and paste from CoPilot to a Word Doc

Question

I used CoPilot to summarize data from a Table and want to copy and past the summary into a separate Word doc, but it won't let me copy and paste. When I right click or Ctrl-C, nothing happens.

Hi @John Chatz

Welcome to Q&A ~

Could you tell us more information about your issue?

Are you using Copilot in Word or other Copilot program to process your data? If possible, you may take a screenshot of your Copilot interface.

In my test environment with Microsoft 365 Apps installed, after I ask a question in Copilot in Word, there should be a "Copy" icon for Copilot response.

This icon is circled in red in the image below. It will work as "Ctrl+C", then we can paste the Copilot response into a new document.

Any misunderstanding, you may let me know.
