copy/paste function not working properly

K

Kittie

when I copy/paste (either using the shortcuts or right clicking or using the
drop down menu at the top) from one office program (and also IE) to another
the function will not work unless I have the program that I am pasting to
ALREADY OPEN AND READY to paste into.

For example: In Outlook I copy some text from an open email to paste into a
new email. Unless I already have that new email opened up my copy/paste
function will not work. If I happen to have both documents already open then
the copy/paste function works fine.

This is happening in all MS applications and is constant. I am running
Windows XP, IE6 and Office 2003 (but this was happening in Office XP on my
computer, too -- I recently upgraded to Office 2003)
This is a big pain and I have no idea why it is working this way. Any insight?

Thanks in advance,
Sarah
