I have an small error notification box on my Excel 365 for web sheet. I cannot find a way to clear or delete it.

It triggers an error dialogue box that states the camera tool function is not compatible with Excel for web:

I am copy/pasting content from a desktop excel document to the web version, but I am not attempting to use the camera tool in either the desktop or web versions. How can I clear the small error notification box? Thanks for any help

    Dear Kevin,

    Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

    Per the description shared, I would like to summarize the problem at your end i.e., you are copying the content from the Excel workbook opened on the desktop and paste it into the Excel workbook opened on the web. However, pasting the content gives the error prompt that Excel for the web doesn't support interacting with Camera Tools.

    If my understanding is correct, I would like to confirm some scenarios which will help us to better understand and move further:

    1. Can I know the content you are copying from the Excel desktop to Excel for the web?
    2. If you try to paste the content to the new Excel workbook on the web, do you have the same problem?
    3. Is it possible to share the Excel file in which you are trying to copy the content? If yes, please remove the personal information from the file and share it with us by uploading it to OneDrive. We will help to check if there is any remaining image created by Camera Tool.

    We look forward to your response. Thanks for your cooperation.

    Sincerely,
