I have had this happen 4 times now...and a colleague of mine experiences it
randomly as well. I'll be working in a PowerPoint 2007 file (XP Pro on my
machine) and suddenly the copy/paste or cut/paste functions stop working. Not
only the
Ctrl + C shortcuts, but the actual items are greyed out on the ribbon. I am
not doing anything unusual...and it had been working moments earlier, then,
without warning...it stops. No error message, just stops working. All else in
the file works fine...even the duplicate function. But usually I am trying to
copy a shape or text box from one slide to another, so duplicate doesn't help
me in this situation.
I must reboot my computer to get the functionality back...and then it's fine
for months at a time...until it happens again.
Anyone else having this issue? Is it a bug in 2007?
Thanks for any help!
