Unfortunately I don't remember seeing that reported on EW/TW mailing
list.

Thank you Bruce for that valuable information - I do use UniServer 4
and this is what is causing my problem. You are absolutely correct in
that if you switch off UniClip's clipboard utility then EasiWriter's
CTRL-C/CTRL-V works as expected.

I've been tearing my hair out trying to resolve this issue without
success but to think that just disabling UniClip's clipboard cures it.
Has anyone got back to RComp to try and ascertain why this is happening
and is there a longer term solution? I use the RISC OS to Windows 7
clipboard function regularly but having to remember to switch this
option on each time is annoying.

Many thanks again for all those who replied with other useful
suggestions.
