my drag and drop stopped working in Outlook

[Guest]

All of a sudden, I am no longer able to drag and drop messages between
folders, or meetings to another time on Outlook calendar. I also seem to be
having difficulty with my 'copy' command, either with the menus or the Ctrl C.

What version of Outlook? What happens if you restart your computer?

Ben:

Thanks. I'm using Outlook 2003 on Windows XP profsssional. When I re-boot
my computer and re-open Outlook, it begins to work properly, and then stops.
It's very strange and I don't see anyting else going on in the background
processes that would cause a problem. I'm behind a corporate firewall, with
full virus protection and nothing turns up on my scans.

Suggestions?

Kevin,

Ever figure this out? I'm having the same problem now, except don't think
rebooting helps.

Thanks.

In regard to my Calendar, I just solved this by messing with my View settings.

View/Arrange By/Current View/Customize

Then I turned Autopreview off and I was able to drag and drap appointments
in Workweek view without Autopreview.

I forget exactly how after that, but a minute later I was able to d&d with
Autopreview on.
