Default Text not pasting

Hi Everyone,

I created a table in word 2003. When I copy text from the same document or
another document and then paste, the text doesn't paste. I can drag text
from one cell to another. I created the table by using the Table menu then
insert table with 2 columns and 2 rows. I did readjust the row size. I
looked around in different properties and in the Tools/Options section but
nothing pops out as a problem or limited permissions.

Thanks,
Linda

Default Text not pasting

Does this happen only with table cells? Do the table rows have fixed heights?
If so, clear the check box next to the specify height option (in Table |
Table Properties, Row tab).

Alternatively, if you cannot paste at all, the cause could be a poorly
designed add-in. If you start Word in safe mode, does copying and pasting
then work?
