Upgraded from version 11.0.2.1766 to 11.0.3.1770 and yet again they have failed to correct this issue.

Copying from inside PLD to an outside editor works.
Copying from an outside editor to PLD never works.

This is odd, I have noticed exactly the opposite behavior after (and before) upgrade to 11.0.3.1770

Copying from inside PLD to an outside editor never works.
Copying from an outside editor to PLD works.

Eevn with the copy style preference switched off...

Addition : behavior seems random.
After I disconnected from a VMWARE Horizon View application, copy and paste functionality in PLD is back again !

Puzzles me...

My colleague gave me a useful suggestion :

When pasting in PLD, type CTRL-CC (Keep the CTRL key down when hitting the C button for the second time). Then paste as usual.

Problems seem to occur in more cases when virtual desktop software are in the way...

Hope this helps.

Sorry, above post should be read as "when copying in PLD"...

Thanks for the response RHuesken.

Unfortunately, for the past couple versions this behavior has not been random for me. I can never copy from an outside editor to PLD. I can always copy from PLD to an outside editor. It definitely sucks.

I also tried your suggestion using CTRL-CC to copy within PLD and still nothing.

I am not using a virtual desktop either. I have a standard Win7 machine.

Do you run other software at the same time that might be messing with the clipboard?

I have copy/paste issues when running a Microsoft Office application at the same time because of "smart" Office Clipboard functionality.

Have you tried Ctrl-Insert (Copy) and Shift-Insert (Paste)?

Thanks for the responses Worker and Gustavo.

To test your suggestions, I restarted my computer and opened PLD, Notepad, and Internet Explorer (IE only to get to this forum).

Surprisingly, copying and pasting seems to work from PLD to notepad, from notepad to PLD, and from PLD to PLD.

I proceeded to open Microsoft Outlook and test copying and pasting in Outlook, and then again with PLD. Everything seems to work still.

I'm going to continue testing with other Microsoft Office applications that I use heavily and see if I can identify the cause.

Thanks a lot for the responses. Very well could be a "smart" Office clipboard issue.

Have you tried Ctrl+Insert / Shift+Insert instead of Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V ?
Some programs do not get the Ctrl+C or Ctrl+V key effect because of dual language configuration.
