Default Error message: Cannot empty the clipboard.

Whenever I try to copy from Word or Excel, I get an error message that says
"cannot empty the clipboard." There is nothing on the clipboard. Has anyone
had this happen before or does anyone know what I can do? Thanks much.

Carolyn,

I see this occur when DDE type links are running in the background, typicaly
from a market data source such as Bloomberg or Reuters.
