SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. In Microsoft Office InfoPath, you copy text from inside a Rich Text box in a layout table. Then, you paste this text outside the layout table in the InfoPath form. In this scenario, the pasted text appears inside a table cell instead of by itself.



CAUSE
This issue occurs after you install Windows Internet Explorer 7 on a computer that has InfoPath installed. Or, this issue occurs after you install InfoPath on a computer that is running Windows Vista.

Note By default, Windows Vista includes Internet Explorer 7.

To edit XML files, InfoPath uses the XML capabilities in Internet Explorer to perform certain functions, such as the copying-and-pasting of XML objects. Internet Explorer 7 handles copy-and-paste operations differently from pre-Internet Explorer 7 versions of the browser.
