SYMPTOMS
If you copy and paste strings from PowerPoint 2000 to a Microsoft Outlook message that is in HTML format, the strings do not appear in the message.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the first time that you copy and paste strings from PowerPoint 2000 to an HTML message, there is a  tag after the pasted strings, which has &quot;DISPLAY:none&quot; as the style. The next time that the strings are pasted in an HTML message or if you paste new strings in an HTML message, the strings inherit the &quot;DISPLAY:none&quot; style from the  tags. This inherited &quot;DISPLAY:none&quot; style from the  tag does not allow the pasted or inputted strings to appear.
