    I wrote a macro for Word 2000:
    //////////////////////
    Sub Macro1()

    ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=5000, End:=5000).Paste

    End Sub
    /////////////////////

    When I use this macro to paste an Autoshape (rectangel, oval, …), it causes “Run-time error 4198”. But if I reduce the number to the range of the 1st page, it works. Why this macro only runs when the spcified range is within the 1st page. And if I pasted text or bitmap, no error happens. Anyone knows how such strange thing happens?
