Default Can't paste in Word 2007 - paste is greyed out

The subject line says it all really. I have been using Office 2007 OK for
the past 10 days no problems. This morning I opened Word and tried to paste
(ctlr+V) some plain text from an email message and nothing happened. I
looked on the toolbar and the Paste command was greyed out. I tried closing
the application and restarting that did nothing.

I am using Windows 7 if that is significant

Perhaps its a trial that has expired, or you failed to Activate Office

No it's activated and for reasons known only to my version (!) it has now
started working OK after it had rested for 24hrs..... the poor love must
have been worked too hard with me catching up on a lot of correspondence!
