Hi all,

I am using my work laptop, and Word is the mail editor in my Outlook 2003.
When I create an email, type text, and then select a word, right-click and select "copy", I ALWAYS get the following Word Error message: "An error occurred while trying to retrieve information from another program. Try working with your message again".
I then hit "OK" twice and I can paste the text if I want to.
This error does not occur within Word itself, only in Outlook. I do not get the error if Word is not the email editor.

I have googled this problem and only found two pages that did not give me any solution.
Can someone help please?

Thank you in advance!

D.

Just an FYI, multiple posts for the same issue are against the rules of this site.
