depends on what fornmat OpenOffice exports for copy/paste. if it does
html, then it will work.

silly Windows user, Ctrl-C is for kids! :-)
the reason it's not there is because it's not needed for copy/paste

it is "marked for copying". Just go to the other window and middle-click
and it will just Magically Work (tm).
Isn't X-Windows grand?
