Hi ?B?SHVsc2V5?=,
Bsciallyi can't cut and paste all of a sudden. the clipboard remains empty.
Hold down CTRL to start Word in "Safe Mode". If you can use the clipboard while
in safe mode, then you have an Add-in of some kind that's interfering.
If it doesn't work with Word in safe mode, boot Windows in Safe Mode and see if
the problem goes away. If it does, you're looking for some kind of "management"
software that's loading with Windows and interfering. There've been many reports
of this kind in the past year, with various third-party (=non-Microsoft)
applications identified as culprits.
