SYMPTOMS

When you search for clips in a Microsoft Office document (on the Insert menu, point to Picture, and then click Clip Art) during a Microsoft Windows 2000 Terminal Services session, you may receive the following error message:
Microsoft Clip Organizer
Not enough memory. Try closing other applications or restarting the computer.
Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.
Error Code 0x8007000E
No clips are returned in the search results, even though Clip Organizer contains clips that match your search criteria. As a result, you cannot insert a clip into your Office document.

CAUSE

This issue may occur if both of the following conditions are true:
  • You connect to a Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4)-based computer by running Windows 2000 Terminal Services from a Terminal Services client.

    -and-
  • You log on to the terminal server as a user who is not a member of the Administrators group.
This issue occurs because of changes in security settings made to Terminal Services in Windows 2000 SP4 that affect the functionality of the Interface Remoting component in Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC). For more information about the new security settings that have been introduced in Windows 2000 SP4, see the "More Information" section of this article.
