Impossible to open several documents

[Gabriel]

Hello,

I use Word 2007 with SP1.

It's impossible to open several document in the same time mainly when the
documents contain "Text box". Sometimes, it's possible to open several
documents, in the same time but in this case impossible to access "Text
box".

Example, if I want to copy/paste between 2 docs, I have to open the first
one, copy, close doc, open the second and paste.

I use Windows Vista Ultimate SP 1

This sounds like you have some incompatible utility that is messing with the
Office Clipboard.

Test for this by starting Word in Safe Mode: from Start, Run (Winkey+R),
type in

winword /a

and press enter. Word will now open in Safe Mode. Open 2 documents that you
know have the reported problem and test copy/paste between them. Does it
work in Safe Mode?

Typically, this may be some clipboard utility or it may be an Office add-in.
