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.
