Publisher 2003 "freezes" often when importing text (cut and paste)

[Jblair]

We just upgraded to Office 2003 and Publisher 2003. Publisher 2003 seems to
be a regression from the 2000 version. Of the many strange behaviors we have
encountered this is one where we have found no workaround. The application
just freezes occassionally. Today it was when we imported a small block of
text (150 words or less) into a text box. The app just freezes. After as
much as a minute the app "wakes up" and we can move on as usual. But, it
recurrs at random.

Try this:
Slide the acceleration down on your adapter, control panel, display, settings tab,
advanced button, troubleshoot tab. If this solves your problem you need to upgrade
your video driver. Go to the manufacturer's web site and look around.
