Cannot Enter or Copy/Paste any Text

[James Hardaway]

I am running Windows XP and Publisher 2000 on my system.
I installed XP back in June and have had no problems with
the Publisher until now.

When I open an existing or new (blank) Publisher document
and try to enter text I get an error message "Publisher
cannot complete the operation." If I try to copy/paste a
Text Frame on an existing document I get an error
message "There is not enough memory to paste objects." It
will copy/paste or insert a picture or clipart.

I can create a bitmap image of a Publisher page and
copy/paste it into a Publisher or Word document. This
problem has come about within the last few days, because I
used the program 8-days ago. I am not having any problems
with any other MS Office programs.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
James

I finally got the problem solved. I looked in the "Temp"
folder under "C:\Documents and Settings\Default(or User
Name)\Local Settings\" and deleted over 35,000 temp files
there associated with Publisher. After doing that
Publisher and Adobe Reader are working properly. Whew!!!
