"exceeded maximum number of selection sets" error ??????

[Anonymous]

Anyone know why this happens to me?

Every now & then I will be using the 'copyM' (copy multiple command from
express tools) I get this "exceeded maximum number of selection sets" error.

What is does is, when I select an entity to copy it allows me to only copy
it over about two times then it just exits the command & gives me that error
text in the Command line. Normally it would allow me to copy the entity
over & over & over as much as I want???

Anybody know how I can make this problem go away?

Thanks,

Greg M. Price
