This just happened for the first time ever.

I can't copy and paste text from TextEdit or Word into PageMaker (6.5). 
I can copy a graphic from the clipboard
I reinstalled Pagemaker and restarted Classic - no help.
The error message I get is

"Cannot paste one or more formats from clipboard.
Cannot retrieve clipboard data. Try printing in another format.
8703:6003"

Any help gratefully accepted - I can't do any work with this problem.
