Default Word won't accept ANY pasted text.

There is a second Startup folder for Office (see
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...sInstalled.htm for more
on this).

You could also take a look in the Add-Ins category of the Word Options
dialog box. In particular, see if there are any COM add-ins: In the "Manage"
box, choose "COM Add-Ins" and click Go.

Thanks, but the Word Startup folder is empty:

If you can't delete it from the Macros dialog box, the macro is in an
add-in. You need to move that add-in out of the Startup folder for Word.

To find out the path to the Startup folder, look in the File Locations
dialog box: Click the Office button, and then click Word Options. In the
Advanced category, click the File Locations button (near the bottom of
the
category).

Yes, EditPaste is on the list of macros, but I see no way to delete it.
How to?

Thanks

If
so, this has hijacked the built-in EditPaste command and is trying to
run
when you use the keyboard shortcut or button for that command. If so,
you
need to delete that macro.

news Win XP Pro SP3

Every time I try to paste text into a docx (Word 2007) I get this
warning
(see
image http://www.rcblue.com/Misc/Macros_Disabled.jpg). Why do I
need
enabled macros to copy and paste into Word? What do I need to do to
enable
the pasting of text, say the text from a newspaper article online?

I get the warning, and the paste fails, no matter what I'm trying to
paste.
I tested this by typing "Now is the time for good men.", then
cutting
it
(Ctrl+X) and trying to paste it back where it had been in an
otherwise
blank
docx; the paste failed and the same Visual Basic warning appeared.

What going on? I've tried enabling all macros in the Trust center,
but
no
change.
This version of Word so far is turning out to be pretty worthless to
me.

Help?

Thanks
