[DUG] Cut/Copy/Paste

[Robert martin]

Hi

This is a new bug introduced in D2007 update 3 (I assume thats the 
Delphi you are using).  It really annoyed the %$*@# out of me.  Code 
gear know its there but haven't released an updated patch for it yet (I 
thought the idea of the new update system was that small updates would 
be automatically downloaded and installed ?).

Anyway the suggested solution (in quality central) is to modify source 
code and rebuild Delphi.  However it seems there is some debate over 
what to change.  Anyway there is also a small program you can get that 
automatically does the patch (to the binary files) and fixes it for 
you.  I did this and it worked fine.

I don't have the web site for it but I can email the exe to you if you 
need it.  I found about it by Google (which found it in QC).

Sorry I should have posted about this when I found it, it's not the 
easiest thing to find.  Although it would be nice if Code Gear had 
alerted us, after all it is a pretty major flaw - no right click options 
for edits etc.
