I suggest you spend some time and actually read description of the problem and not just the name of the thread. The copy and paste in this case is really incidental, the real issue comes when you EDIT THE VALUE FIELD. It’s just it happens most often after copy and paste action.

And thank you for your patronizing, but I do just fine with field editing “facilities”. The issue discussed here is not how to edit fields efficiently, but the fact, that when you duplicate a symbol and change the value field by directly clicking on it, more often than not, you don’t change all the other fields, and if you don’t pay close attention when reviewing your BOM, you are not going to order that part, because it is just going to get grouped with the other parts.
