Microsoft Works Word Processor

Mar 9, 2010 6:05AM PST

Whenever I try to copy and paste something onto a new page in "Microsoft Works Word Processor" it says it "has stopped working--A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." This happens every time I try to do this. I can type directly onto a new page. My system is Windows 7.

Thanks for any help.

Without knowing what version of Works you have, we have no way of telling whether or not it's a version compatible with 7. It might be a small wonder it works at all, let alone only crashing when you try and copy/paste.

Microsoft works word processor stops working
Aug 10, 2010 9:10AM PDT

I have a Windows 7 system. Whenever I try to paste something into the page of the V. 9.7.0621 Microsoft works word processor, I get the message "Microsoft Works Word Processor has quit working." I am able to enter information by typing it in. Ideas?
