Newly installed Office 2003. I've always enjoyed using the copy and paste
feature to get helpful info on the internet into a Word document that I ca
read separately or save to my files. Now when I use copy for the text or
article on the internet, and go to paste it into my Word document, Word
"hangs" up and I have to cancel Word (mostly with ctr-alt-del). Never
encountered this with Word 2000.
