I do a lot of copying and pasting back and forth between documents and have
found Office Word 2007 to be some what frustrating at times.

Generally it goes something like this... I have one document with a mailing
list and another with a Avery Mailing Labels template. So I go to the mailing
list and copy an address, then switch to the Avery Mailing Label template to
paste... it always seems to slug down and take a bunch of time switching
between doc's and on the very top bar it says Microsoft Office Wood is Not
Responding, then it comes back and I can paste what I want.

I am running Microsoft Office Professional 2007 on Windows Vista Ultimate 32
bit with 2 gig ram. Everything is fully updated.

In WinXP and Office 2003 it did not do this. I dual boot between the two
OS's and find Office 2003 in WinXP to be much smoother.

Copying and pasting is a hugely inefficient way of creating mailing labels -
try mail merge.

That was an example, but not the point.

It was copying from one document and pasting in another was making Word go
"Not Responding"
