Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
I am a very active computer user with a fair amount of knowledge.
I replaced a PC w/ a new Dell and have publisher 2000 installed on it. I used to be able to copy and paste between publications, now I copy and when I attempt to paste to the new publication nothing happens - any ideas? I have detect and repaired, uninstalled and reinstalled - nothing works. I copy between applications almost hourly let alone daily and I use this cut and paste between publications frequently. The work around is time consuming at best - anyone else run into this and have suggestions how to fix???

Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
Windows XP Professional 2002 w/ SP2. All Microsoft Update (windows updates)
and Microsoft Office Updates have been done, even doing custom nothing else shows available or due. I can copy in publisher and paste in Word or as an image in other graphics programs. I can copy in one instance of publisher and it holds in the clipboard, then in the next instance of publisher I can right click or Edit / Paste or Paste Special and it looks like it is going to paste but nothing shows up. Then the option to paste again becomes unavailable. I am using Microsoft Office 2000 and Publisher 2000. Publisher was bought seperate from Office. I have never seen this before nor from what I have read has anyone else. "Mary Sauer" wrote: Is this failure happening with just Publisher? Are your other applications working okay?

Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
It is also worth mentioning I can copy and paste to my hearts content in a
single instance of publisher or single publication but multiple publications it fails. This PC came with Office 2003 demo pre-loaded and it was uninstalled using control panel.

Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
I am now also having this on one of my systems. I can narrow it down a
bit for you. Last Tuesday (10/10) all was running fine. I then installed on Wednesday evening: - Windows XP maintenance for October - Office 2000 maintenance (at least 1, definately 2, or maybe 3 months) 8 pieces of maint went on 1 or more definately hit Publisher (I don't have the list in front of me) Today, the user attempted to copy/paste from one Publisher 2000 file to the other and it failed. It has worked for years. System is XP SP2 plus all maintenance, Office 2000 plus all maintenance. Any ideas? Any ideas of what to try?

Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
More info:
I tried in now on multiple PCs..... When I copy from one pub file.... Go to the target doc... If I right-mouse click 'Paste' is available, the FIRST time,,, If I use the menu bar under Edit, Paste is never available. I have narrowed it down to the application of maintenance to Office or XP, but most likely Office, I have narrowed it down to one of just a few pieces of maintenance,,, wrote: I am now also having this on one of my systems.

Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
The clipboard is a Windows controlled function. If you open the clipboard
manually can you see the copied data? The clipbrd.exe is in the C:\WINDOWS\system32 folder. Drag the icon to the desktop and create a shortcut. You need to ask about clipboard issues in a Windows newsgroup. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com http://officebeta.iponet.net/en-us/p...649111033.aspx wrote in message ups.com...

When you copy to clipboard the item (text or image) is copied. It can be
pasted to your hearts delight in the same publication, but it attempts to paste to other publications 1x then the option to paste is gone. The item still remains in the clipboard however. You can drag and drop out of publisher to word but not between publisher publications??? "Mary Sauer" wrote: The clipboard is a Windows controlled function.

I simply don't know what to tell you. I can copy/paste from a Publisher file to
a Publisher file over and over with no problem. You might try a disk clean-up. Don't delete Office setup files. Can you drag and drop between your Publisher files? Do a repair from the Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to Office 2000, click change, repair. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com http://officebeta.iponet.net/en-us/p...649111033.aspx "Lost in NH" wrote in message ...

Copy / Paste issue between publications... ???
Unfortunately, I have tried that w/ no success. I completely uninstalled
office and publisher, deleted the office folder, etc. Reinstalled - no luck. Did the detect and repair - no luck. Seems to me from reading other peoples messages, especially where this problem is also present in word that a recent security update wasn't tested enough and might have caused this problem.
