First, put your Caps Lock key off.

Word is also notorious for leaving temp files on the system that can cause all kinds of problems.

All of these files should be deleted by Word but, they often are not.


The file names all begin with a tilde (~) so search your hard drive for ~*.doc and ~*.dot and delete any you find.

you could uninstall word and use "Abi Word" or "Open Office" the entire office sweet...

both are free, beter, and portable, wich makes it more gooder

You might want to try going to the Word Edit menu drop down and click "paste special". Try pasting in formatted text RTF or in unformatted text to see if the problem persists.

Have you installed any new progs from the time this problem started - some may change the defualts?
