I have never had any problem using Ctrl+V to paste copied text into any Web
form anywhere; I find it hard to believe it would not work in the
Communities portal you are using. Of course, you have to have copied the
text first. You can copy an error message using Ctrl+C.

This site doesn't allow paste in the message area - and, does not have
any
means to attach.
The error message contains 16 lines of text. Far too much for me to
try
to
type accurately.
The opening line is "This error message can appear for several
reasons."
The closing line is "More information about this error message online"
[
with no link to an online URL]
There are 4 paragraphs that talk about Recovery, disk space, RAM, file
locks
and attributes. None of the suggested problem sources are applicable
to
the
file or system.
The document was created in Word 2000. The user is using Word 2003.
There
are 8, or more, other users using the same .doc with Word 2003, with
no
problem.
The .doc is a form completion .doc, using the macros that change the
"Enter"
key to "Tab" and then back to "Enter" upon closing the .doc. There is
no
error message number.
The complaining user is using Windows XP pro on a Dell
If anyone has an idea as to why this would be occurring, please let me
know.
I could send a JPEG of the error message if I have your e-mail
address.
I've seen the rejection due to macros. This we adjust to moderate
level
security so that they still get asked if it's okay - in order to block
out
unknowns. But that is not the message that is coming up. The document
is
not
opening far enough to cause that error
Sure would appreciate a hand. I've warrantied this project and it is
working
successfully at 22 locations, in 5 states. All of a sudden this
strange
unlabeled error message.
HELP!!!
Suzanne:
CTRl+V wouldn't work here. Any other ideas?

In 18 years of MS experience, I too have never had a failure of any of the
cut and paste avenues whether using shortcut keys, right-click pop up menus
or the edit drop down menu - except in discussion group windows. You cannot
paste an image here - only text. Why is MS so stubborn and not include an
opportunity to attach. So many of the error messages are difficult to copy
as text.
Anyhow, in my case, my client-user sent me the error message in a .pdf file.
I can only get an image of the message from Acrobat Reader or Mac Preview.
Thus my ability to paste is limited to the image from a .jpg file.
Now that we are through with teaching me about copy/paste, do you have any
ideas about the problem that I am having. I am making a copy of my original
post and am going to open a thread in the Errors area. I hadn't noticed it
before. I am not a frequent user of these MS forums. Over the years I've
tried several times and have rarely got an answer - often lectures - but
rarely answers.
