cut and paste problems

[gigoldberg]

I have word 2007 using Windows 8. Suddenly, I have lost the ability to cut and paste, although I can copy and paste. I'm wondering if I changed some setting while I was trying to cut and paste from gmail to word, which I have since found out can't be done due to some bug on Microsoft's end. Any ideas on how I can get back my cut and paste function? Thanks.

How are you 'cutting' the content (e.g. Ctrl-X)?
