Several of the commands that appear on toolbar are grey and I cannot
activiate them. (cut, copy, undo and redo)

It is not a trial. It has been working fine for many months and I do not
know why this happened. It is Word 2000.

You need to have text in your document highlighted for those commands to
work.

Yes, I have and can access these commands w/text but not the e-mail command.
When I pull down "edit" from the menu bar the commands are all grey.
