Cut & Paste Doesn't Work In Office Anymore

[Danno]

Hi. I'm trying to be cool here, but to tell you the truth...this is driving
me freakin' nuts.

It's peeving me off to no end that I suddenly have this problem. In Excel
(yes...I've tried the microsoft.excel help site), when I select a cell by
right clicking on it, the option to 'cut' or 'copy' is not there. But the
option to paste is always there. If I select paste...it will paste
something that I cut hours ago in another program, another place, another
time. It seems the clipboard is full.

I have re-installed "Office". I have even done a dirty reinstall of XP Pro,
and the same damned thing happens. I can't go to a cell and right click on
it...and get the option to 'cut' nor 'copy'.

This is driving me nuts...and I would sure like some help!

Best Regards,

Danno

I beleive you have the blaster virus.
Loss of cut/paste was one of the symptoms, although, one of the other
symptoms was XP failing to boot.

Do a full virus scan. It can't hurt.

OK Lyall, I'll do the scan right now. Stay tuned. I would doubt very much
that my computer has any virus, but let's give her a whirl. thanks! Stay
tuned!

No viruses! I've never even seen a virus. Some of my friends have had
viruses that can do some serious damage, but for me...not yet.
So where do we go from here?

All I want is for...awe Jeez, I give up! Screw it! Why do I care anymore?
