Hi Peter,
Yes, I can paste some things into Publisher. It does seem to be
something with MS Word. I wonder, since I upgraded the Word files, too,
if it has something to do with the upgrade process. The old Publisher I
had did not have a Windows clipboard access button under "Edit" on the
main Publisher menu so I suspect that there is something different about
the way files are handled. I will try the import operation to see if
that helps somehow.
BTW, I rebooted the system overnight and I was able to copy from Word
into Publisher, at least the article I was working on copied. Now, I
don't know what to think. Maybe a clipboard conflict somehow that got
resolved in the reboot? I ran the Repair option so guess I'll see.
Thanks...
