If you’ve been using VS 2010 for anything more than a few minutes you have probably had the clipboard issue – ie, copy and paste randomly breaks. This is documented on MS connect here and probably elsewhere.
The current recommendation is to install VS 2010 SP1 beta which I did this morning.
Unfortunately this doesn't work for me. I still get random errors, albeit slightly different. Now when I paste, the cursor moves back to what I had selected and nothing is pasted.
Happy days !
