Default Need to copy from word 2007 and paste in another program

I am typing files in word and then copying them to another program. I could
do it once, and now the copy and paste will not light up. I made sure nothing
is in the clip board, as I had trouble with it copying things I did not want.
I have cleared clipboard and still cannot copy. I have a new computer and it
is frustrating when easy things are so difficult. Can someone please help me?
I am taking an online class and need to submit this paper. Is there anyway to
get rid of clipboard?

Thank you for your help.

Do you have something selected? If no text is selected, there is
nothing to copy and the copy option will be greyed out.

Have you tried the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+C)? Ctrl+X is for cut (as
opposed to copy) and Ctrl+V is paste.

It might be helpful for you to turn on Word's clipboard viewer (on the
Home ribbon next to the word clipboard under the paste button) so you
can see that a copy has actually occurred before you attempt to paste
elsewhere.

I'd also like to know the "another program" that the copy is going into.
Not all can accept text items from the clipboard.
