I may "roll my own" menu if I decide for some reason that I really need one, but it would be cool to know what the conflict is/was just the same. If anyone can shed alight on the subject, that would be great!

The problem is that newly created menus have no scripts. So when you
were copying, pasting etc., this would have been triggering the menu
shortcut, but the menu button had no instructions so nothing happened.

Go to the Menu Builder, select the Edit menu and click "Auto-Script".
Then edit the script for the Edit menu and you will see a basic
structure. Add the relevant commands to the script: cut, copy, paste,
and then try again.
