I use PL/SQL Developer 9.02.1621 which is packaged as a thinapp running in vmware view XP desktop. In office, I use a WYSE terminal to connect to the XP desktop and the clipboard works fine. However, I sometimes work at home using VMWare View client which is a kind of RDP, and the clipboard fails at most of the time (randomly).

I also find that the PL/SQL Developer's "Special Copy" does work. Therefore I define another "Special Copy" to allow me copy the original text and it works. But the drawback is that it always add an extra new line when pasting.

There must be some difference between normal copy and "Special Copy"!??
