I'm experiencing a problem where sometimes the cut/copy/paste functions of the IDE aren't working. Is this a known bug? Is there a fix? jas -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeffrey A.

Since I have a clone 286 whenever I call about a problem, they blame it on my hardware... If others are experiencing strange behavior with cut/copy/paste or with mousing the scroll bars crashing the program ( especially in 43 line VGA ), send me email and I will compile it ( then I'll link it! ) and send it to bugs@borland.com. /*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/ * I don't express opinions, I just follow orders...

Try turning persistent blocks on normally, then off when you get in, or on & off again if you keep it off normally. They claim this clears it up. Have yet to confirm it. jas -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeffrey A.

Is this a known bug? Is there a >fix? I sure hope it's know. It drives me crazy, but I'm too lazy to call Borland ... maybe someday I will. I have not been able to determine what causes the cut/paste to quite working, but it can be fixed by selecting and then de-selecting the "persistent block" feature (I use the word "feature" loosely :-) ). >Jeffrey A.
