I've lost the clipboard functionality in my computer and I'm finding the
on-line Help system totally useless. I'm sure it's an easy fix, but I can't
find anything useful to get me started.
 
Explain what you mean by "lost the clipboard functionality".
 
If you are copying from the Internet, it could be your temporary cache is full.
In Internet Explorer, tools, Internet Options, delete files.
 
As you are asking in a Word newsgroup, I'll assume you mean the Office
clipboard which can sometimes appear to have a mind of its own although it
does follow a set of rules.

Getting it back depends slightly on the version of Word you are using. In
Word 2000, select View > Toolbars > Clipboard from the Menu. In later
versions it is Edit > Office Clipboard (I think - I have 2000 on the
computer in front of me) after which you can set the options via the
"Options" button at the bottom of the Pane.

If you have actually lost all Cut and Paste functionality then please come
back with more details.
