Running win98SE with Word97 SR-1. I highlight >Edit>Copy article in OE
e-mail, open an existing Word doc and cannot paste the selected text into it
(at the end of the doc.). All I get is _0;. We're talking about copying
about 6 small paragraphs. This is a doc that I've been adding to weekly in
the same manner for over a year. About 243 pages and 550,000 characters so
far. Any ideas? Thank you, Steve T.
 
It could be you have a Word add-in that is using the Clipboard. What
happens if you open the document first and then copy/paste from OE?

If it pastes correctly then follow the steps in the Resolution section
