MS Publisher 2007

I am using MS Publisher 2007 on a PC clone w/ MS Win XP/SP3. I use it to publish a newsletter which goes on a web site.
I finished a story and added (pasted) a picture of a dog I had copied that was an email attachment. I then went on to set up for the next story which I accomplished with no problems. However, when I try to paste a picture of a rainbow I just copied from the internet, I wind up with the dog picture from the previous paste.
I tried to copy the rainbow picture to a different location in the newsletter, but had the same results. I then copied the internet rainbow picture to Word, which was successful. But when I copy it to the newsletter from Word, I again get the dog picture.
I've done this newsletter for a few years, and never had this occur.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Hello,
See if clearing the clipboard will help.

On the Edit menu, click Office Clipboard.

Then select Clear all.

Tgell,

Click Start>Run and type "clipbrd" no quotes in the box. Does the dog appear in the viewer?

 

No, clipboard is empty.

 

If you do a search for all image files in XP, does the dog show up? Also, if you turn your computer off, this should clear anything in memory. This is kind of a weird problem.

 

Tgell -
Shut down, restart and voila I have a rainbow pic pasted successfully to my newsletter.
As for the dog's picture...Like looking for that proverbial needle. Did ascertain that I need to get rid of about 2/3 of the visuals. I have no idea how all the junk that is in there got there, or where it is so I can get rid of it. I'll work on that after I get this current newsletter issue to bed.
Glad the paste problem is solved. I am running up against deadline, and as I am up at 0'dark:30 for work, I have to sign off for today, and get ready for the rack.
Many thanks for your problem solving.

Note - Should you sometime need info or assistance with ground warfare, please contact me. I would be glad to be of help ;<)
