paste to original coordinates

This is a command I frequently use. However, upon installation of 2010 Architecture, this right click option is usually greyed out, and doesn't allow me to use that command. Nothing different than how I normally use it. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi Mike, autocad made a mistake in the coding of the Original Co-ordinates Command.
If you type CUI into your command line, then go to Shortcut Menus, Edit Menu and find the Paste to Original Coordinates command.
There is an & in the command name, take this out and your cammand will work fine.
Hope that works, it did for me.

The solution i previously gave is only a temporarly fix and isnt even an error for autocad as there is supposed to be an & in the command name.
to fix this problem properly you will need to open your cui window, once in the window open Menus, then edit. Once in edit copy both the "Paste as block" and the "Paste to Original Coordinates". The open Shortcut Menus, then edit menu, once in the edit menu delete the "Paste as block" and the "Paste to Original Coordinates" that are in that menu and replace them with the ones that you copied. and that should be a permanant fix.

 Don't know if anyone is still monitoring this thread but I had the same problem with aca 2012 and Kitetsu07's solution above worked for me .

 

You would have thought that autodesk would have fixed this by now. 

 

The solution below did not work for me because menus in my aca 2012 is empty see attached.
