Cut, Copy and Paste not working in Word 2007

This function has been working fine. Installed Office 2007 last Dec 08. Never
had a problem. Suddenly the cut, copy and paste funtion is greyed out in
word. This is not a windows issue as copy and paste works for all other
applications. Does anyone know how to turn this function back on?
 
This is probably a poorly designed add-in interfering with the copy, cut and
paste operations in Word. Did you install something recently?

As far as I know, there is no standard option to deactivate these
basic features. If they are no longer working, the easiest fix is
probably a reinstall of office.

Note that reinstalling usually does *not* fix issues with Word. I have
already mentioned poorly designed add-ins; more suggestions can be found in
the article at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/ProblemsStartingWord.htm.

Worked for me:
Look for "Send to Bluetooth" add-in under each office program and delete it. Find it under Options, Add-ins. If it's not listed, you don't have the add-in and it's not the problem. If you see it, go to Manage, Select COM add-ins and click Go. Check the box next to the add in and click Remove.
