Excel, Word closes when pasting into Outlook 2003

There is a user who is using Office 2003. When selecting anything on an Excel worksheet including just a cell with text. The user then opens up a new email or reply email and the Excel will just close. It literally just closes. It happens everytime. The user can take text in a word document and copy then when going to outlook and clicking on new or reply to an email the word closes. Anyone know what the fix is for this? I know this can't be easy to figure out. The user was given a new profile and the excel worked fine for a week and now it is back.

I have the same issue here, it has happened on two machines. I also tried the new profile approach and within a week excel would crash out again from pasting anything from the worksheet.
What I did notice is you can open an email message before you copy from excel, then copy and paste from excel. This is a work around until I get the answer to solve this one.

Ive tried all the usual, uninstalls, repairs, new profiles, but I cant think of what the link between copying in Excel and a new mail message have in common.

Any ideas please?
 
Hi Macabee,

Have not found an answer for this yet. Where I work the machines were reimaged. Drastic measure I agree to fix it but so far I have not heard it coming back yet in a couple of weeks.
