It usually does work. It may appear to have not done what you want for different reasons. For example, it does not overwrite formatting in another cell. So if you copied the value 3 from one cell and pasted it into a cell that had been formatted as Percentage, you would get 300% and not 3 in the new cell. That might appear to some as the paste value not having worked but it is correct. So if you are having a problem, examine what is happening, looking at both the source and destination and what results you get.
