Past in Outlook creates wastebasket erro

[coolblueshot]

Greetings,

Sometimes when I copy and paste something into my Outlook e-mail, I get
an icon that looks like a wastebasket with an error pointing upwards
with an orange circle that contains an envelope with an exclamation
point on it. Does anyone know what this means and how I can prevent it
from happening?

Thanks!

I think that's the Office clipboard icon. If you don't want to see it, turn
off the Office clipboard. From Help in Word:

Turn off the Office Clipboard
1.. On the Office Clipboard task pane, click Options.
2.. Clear the Show Office Clipboard Automatically check box.
3.. Clear the Show Office Clipboard When Ctrl+C Pressed Twice check box.
Note To copy items to the Clipboard while it is turned off, select the
Collect Without Showing Office Clipboard check box.
