Steps:

copy text

open word, excel, new email from outlook, etc

paste (nothing happens)

I have to copy it again and paste it into the already open window. This doesn't happen with other vendor programs or simple programs like notepad. It also doesn't happen all the time, but more than not.

Anyone know what's up?

windows XP, office 2007.

Thanks.

Microsoft usually recommend you to try starting Word/Excel/Outlook without any addons to see if that cures the program and if so to disable the addons until your figure out which one causes the problem and the contact the authors.

The other type of programs that can cause problems are desktop sharing/collaboration programs, so if you have any of these you can try disabling them.

I removed the add-ins and testing it. Like I said, it doesn't always do it. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll let you know how it works out! – user23847 Jul 27 '10 at 14:08
