I have a customer with a perplexing issue that I've not seen before.
The user is able to use copy and cut, but cannot paste in, or from,
Word 2003. None of the other Office applications seem to be affected
internally, but they cannot receive a pasted clip from Word. In other
words, Excel cuts and pastes fine, as does PowerPoint. Only Word seems
to be affected at this time.
We've had the user try replacing Normal.dot, clear temp files, use
Detect and Repair, and clear the Clipboard. Doing a combination of
these things and rebooting worked for a short time, but within days,
the problem has returned. This is on a Win XP Pro system running
Office 2003.
I have seen a similar issue on Word 2004 for Mac, which was cleared
but by booting to OS Installation DVD and repairing permissions. Don't
think their is a similar function on a PC...or is there?
