Paste as image not text

A

Andre Uys

When I cut text from any document containing text, open Word and the paste
in word, a image appears that looks like a little blue and yellow button.
Here it is (This is a small image, hopefully it wont mess your readers
up... Sorry if it does)

If I try Paste Special, my options are limited to Bitmap or Device
Independent Bitmap with the latter being the default.

I have also tried Ctrl+V and Shift+Insert and the same thing happens.

The issues clears up if I copy the same text again from the source and then
paste it again.

If I shut down Word and restart, the same things happens again until I copy
the text again and try pasting it a second time.

Why does Word default to pasting as a bitmap instead of text.?

This does NOT happen in Excel or Access, only Word.

Thanks
Andre
