Word error when copying in Outlook

Hi all,
I am using my work laptop, and Word is the mail editor in my Outlook 2003. When I create an email, type text, and then select a word, right-click and select "copy", I ALWAYS get the following Word Error message: "An error occurred while trying to retrieve information from another program. Try working with your message again". I then hit "OK" twice and I can paste the text if I want to. This error does not occur within Word itself, only in Outlook. I do not get the error if Word is not the email editor.
I have googled this problem and only found two pages that did not give me any solution. Can someone help please?
