    Copy and Paste on a Virtual Machine

    I just began using a Virtual XEN Citrix desktop for my InfoPath development and have run across a problem.

    I am no longer able to do any copy and paste.  I can highlight and copy but when I try to paste, nothing happens.

    If I press Control V 5-10 times I might get one paste.  Sometimes I get two pastes and I Control Z to back one out.

    I read somewhere that this behavior is a problem with Virtual Machines (mine runs XP) but now I cant find the posting I read.

    Does anyone here have any knowledge of this issue?

    Thanks

     

    Thank you for your Help.

    It is a problem with the virtual machine - we have seen this happen in the VM's we use for our training classes.

    I believe I worked around this issue by:

    1. Restarting the VM (the issue seems to come and go, restarting seemed to work for me)

    2. I think one time I was able to paste into notepad or Word and paste from that into InfoPath

    Hope that helps
