One example where it hasnt worked for me is if I cut and paste between. Openoffice spreadsheet -> VNC (Windows Machine) it does work if I do Openoffice spreadsheet - gedit (gnome text editor) -> vnc. Reading this thread I started looking around again and found this nifty program, thank goodness it works! Maybe it will work for you. <A HREF="http://www.lepton.fr/tools/autocutsel/">http://www.lepton.fr/tools/autocutsel/</A> Cheers, Roy.
