Yahoo & Word Compatibilityproblem
I am using W XP and Word 2003. I also use Yahoo Mail. When I try to
copy a portion of an email message from my Inbox and Paste it into a Word document it causes Word to hang. I must then do Ctrl, Alt, Delete to cancel Word. Any help would be appreciated |

Yahoo & Word Compatibilityproblem
Instead of using the normal Paste (Ctrl+C), try to paste the copied content
as _unformatted_ text: Select Edit Paste Special and select "Unformatted Text" from the list. -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "trvlnmny" wrote: I am using W XP and Word 2003.

Yahoo & Word Compatibilityproblem
Lene,
Thanks that did it. Do you happen to know why that happens? Is it a problem with MS Word or with Yahoo? |

Yahoo & Word Compatibilityproblem
Neither, really - the problem (for the most part) is that the web page you
copy contains links to other locations. When you simply Paste Word tries to recreate those links but can't because it doesn't have access to those locations.
