Form is asking for bank routing and account numbers. I have them saved in an Excel document, so it's each to copy and paste them into the form, but nothing happens when when I right click the mouse to paste. Is there a way to make it accept the paste, like an override?
Any way to force copy and paste in an online form?

I think you can only do that if the form is in PDF then you can click on form filing or edit at the top and perform the task you want.
Not a pdf, but if I can type it why can't I paste it? Just a command from the keyboard or mouse.
Ctrl-V to paste may work.
I think if you just click a cell in excel and copy it it pulls in a bunch of other junk that only works in excel. Click on the cell then highlight the text in the cell value bar and Ctrl c it and it should work.
Websites have the ability (through Javascript, I believe) to block pasting into form fields. I encounter this every so often and it's always with financial-related sites.
Why do they do it ? Ask the website developer. It's almost certainly done to prevent malicious intent though.

This might be it. I copied the numbers to Notepad, then am able to copy and paste from Notepad into the form. Thanks
THIS ^^^^
All I do is Ctrl-C to copy and Ctrl-V to paste - much easier and faster than mousing it and it works on every form I tried when the mouse/menu option won't.
In the end, the exact same thing takes place. Your mouse is simply emulating the keyboard and passing on the same keystroke(s) when you right-click, paste.
yes but sometimes the OPTION on the drop down menu is not there were Ctrl-C/V will still work.
