"paste" function failure in MS Word
I am running Windows XP and Office 2003 Pro. I have run
for several months with no similar problem. I am unable to get the "paste" function to work after copying something from any document outside MS Word itself. The function worked flawlessly until about a week ago, when the completion of the "paste" function began to be agonizingly slow. Yesterday, the "paste" function failed to complete the "paste" at all. "Copy" and "paste" work ouside MS Word, or within MS Word, but not from outside to a MS Word document. The copied text shows on the clipboard, but when the "paste" icon, or from any other "paste" function key, is selected, the hourglass appears, MS Word freezes, and I have to shut down MS Word to regain control of MS Word. Re-starts, unplugging from all power sources, disk clean- ups, none of these correct the problem. Help is needed. Thanks. |
