Re: copy and paste in Word 2003
Word 2003, XP
Sometimes (like under a deadline, like now... grrr) Word refuses to
copy and paste from one doc to another. The menu isn't grayed, it just
doen't work. Copy works, because I can copy text into Notepad and copy
back into the other doc.
Seems like I've seen this here before.. is it a 'known issue'?
It's a Windows issue more than an Word issue, I think. Rebooting clears it for me.
When Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V is balky, I find that using the menu or the context menu (right-click in the text) usually continues to work until I reboot and get the keyboard shortcuts back.
