Problem sending Powerpoint to Word

I am having a problem taking a PowerPoint presentation
and using the File - Send to - Microsoft Word - Paste
option.

I have had no problems working through this process with
several of my presentations, but on the presentation that
I am working with now, the process starts, then it stops
and gives me the message "Powerpoint couldn't write to
Microsoft Word."

This isn't an unusally large presentation - it stops on
slide 103 - I have successfully done this "send to Word"
process with presentations that were significantly larger
than this one. Any ideas about why this is hanging up on
this particular presentation??

Thanks!
 
Probably something wonky on slide 103 or 104. Try removing those slides
and see if the file will send. If so, then add them back one at a time
to see which is the problem slide.

Then, after you've figured out which is the problem, try sending just
that slide to Word. (Make a copy of that slide in a new presentation to
do so.) If it balks, you may have to recreate that slide.
