Cut and Paste within One Note

[Deb]

I cannot do the simple cut/copy and paste within One
Note. Paste is always grayed out. Anyone else find this
problem.

Can you take whatever is on the clipboard and paste it into another
program?

Is the insertion point visible in OneNote (i.e. is there a place into which
the clipboard data can be pasted?)

Deb--

I bet that if you go to Tools>Options>Editing>Put Ck. Mark in Show Paste
that does it. If not, run detect and repair from help.

See:

Description of the options available on the Paste Options button in OneNote

She mentioned that she couldn't paste anywhere, not an
issue with the special options.

Eric is correct. The KB refers to a specailized paste option. Then I'd try
in this order:

1) Run Detect and Repair from Help or Add/Remove and if Detect and Repair
don't fix the paste option then

2) I'd install One Note's SP1 and if that doesn't work or you've already
done that

3) I'd run the Windows Installer Clean Up Utility and then uninstall One
Note's SP1 and One Note and then reinstall them:

(save the temporary set up files for future installs when you get
the option)

The best explanation of the WICU I've seen is from Sloan Crayton
[Microsoft]:

________________________________________________________________

"The function of the utility is to remove the remove the corrupted Windows
Installer registry information for an application that was installed via the
Windows Installer. There are several things that it does not do ...
- It does not uninstall any applications
- It does not delete the Windows Installer

After using this utility, the application should then be installed again so
that Setup will function (otherwise, the Windows Installer has no
information that it was ever installed). If the real objective is to remove
a product, it can be uninstalled after this reinstall has occurred."
