Problem with copy/paste.
Sometimes I select something in another application for subsequent addition
to a Word2003 document. But now I find that Word2003 has to be actually open for this to happen. That is if I open Word after the select/copy step has been performed I find that the select/copy has been lost and I am forced to repeat the action. Is there some setting I have missed, because I thought these select/copy went to a 'clipboard' which is an independent applicatioon. Please help, Frank |

Please help, Frank Is this copy of Word part of Works Suite, or an upgrade of Works Suite? The Works Add-In for Word is known to clear the Windows clipboard when Word starts; and there may be other add-ins that play the same dirty trick.
