cut and paste problem

Dear all,

I am new to wine and try to use it to replace vmware for
word/powerpoint applications. The first problem that I encounter is
that I am unable to cut and paste under all the applications
(notepad/word/powerpoint).
It seems that the issue is related to the clipboard behavior because
when I cut (under notepad) I get an error message stating: "Empty
clipboard".
Which is kind of strange since I am filling it.

I searched the web and documentation and haven't found anything
related to this issue.

Can anyone help?

Attached: wine config
Config: debian unstable with wine packages coming with the
distribution

Wine is cool, but wouldn't it make more sense to switch to OpenOffice.Org 
instead, you can still open and save in M$ format so it should be 
interoperable with your current files, and it runs natively in Linux.

cut and paste problem

I can make a certain case for absolutely not.  Myself, I'm considering
strongly going back to Windows for work, I've run into too many instances
where OO has not given me the correct info.  this is very important when
I'm looking at a quote from a supplier, and the fields with multiplication
are not multiplied.  Also, checkboxes don't come across, and I'm sure
there
are others.  While I believe Linux to be the superior OS, I don't believe
Star Office, or Open Office are up to the level of MS Office.

Sadly,
Pat

We've been switching over to OO from MS and you're right, there are
about 5%
of documents that have some problems, but given the ROI, we think its worth 
a few extra labor hours.  Also, most of the time you can find a slighty 
different way of the making the document and let your supplier know how to 
change it, and you're both happy.  The multiplication problem is probably 
caused because someone got lazy and used a cell reference when they should 
have used a variable.  Checkboxes seem to work fine on mine though.  
Personally, I think its worth a little hassle to be able to have the same 
word processor on both platforms.  Of course, if your company has some heavy 
macro users, you may have to stick with M$ products.

cut and paste problem

I am seeing the same problem with Notepad.
I am running wine-cvs-opengl-112802-1 (wine-20021125.i386.rpm).
When I switch to using the native DLLs, I get slightly better
behavior.  I can get text to copy, but never cut.  Once I try
to cut text, the clipboard stops working and trying to paste
from the buffer only pastes "Hello World".

On a side note, I have an app that I am attempting to get
working and I get WAY faster performance from the application
when I use all native Windows XP DLLs.
