I have been able to reproduce the problem in Writer, Calc and Impress.

I was wondering if it could depend on the number of characters which are copied.
 I used CAT and DOG as very clear examples in my report, but I get the error
with what I am actually copying.  I therefore did the following test

1  Open Notepad and create 9 lines of text as below
1
12
123
1234
12345
123456
1234567
12345678
123456789

2  Open writer and write these 9 lines into Writer

3  Start in Writer and copy 123456789.  Paste it in Notepad - OK

4  Copy 1 in Notepad, paste in Writer - pastes as 1 OK
   Copy 123456789 in Writer, copy 12 in Notepad, paste in Writer - pastes 12 OK
   Repeat for 123, 1234, 12345 etc - all paste OK in Writer

5  Move up a line, copy 123456768 in Writer and paste in Notepad - pastes OK
   Copy 1 in Notepad, paste in Writer - pastes 1 OK

6  Copy 123456768 in Writer, copy 12 in Notepad, paste in Writer - pastes 12 OK
   Copy 123456768 in Writer, copy 123 in Notepad, paste in Writer - I get the
error and 12345678 is pasted in Writer.  Immediately paste again in Writer with
ctrl/v and I get 12345678 in Writer - it should be 123.  Change focus to Notepad
and ctrl/v - 123 is pasted in Notepad, which is correct.

7  Open a Calc sheet and ctrl/v - 12345678 is pasted in Calc.  This is wrong.  I
expect 123 to be pasted, but Calc seems to be getting the previous contents
stored in Writer.

8  Open an Impress sheet and ctrl/v into a text box - 12345678 is pasted into
Impress.  This is wrong.  I expect 123 to be pasted, but Impress seems to be
getting the previous contents stored in Writer.

9  Change focus to Notepad and ctrl/v - 123 is pasted into Notepad.  This is
correct as the last time I copied anything, I copied 123. 

10 Close all OO sheets.  Reopen OO and go back to step 1 - everything is OK and
I cannot reproduce the error

11 Close Writer, open Writer, and go back to Step 1 - the error occurs
immediately the first time I copy 1 in Notepad - it is pasted as 123456789 in
Writer.

Conclusions.  

1  It appeares to occur with Windows 7 64 bit. 

2  The problem is not confined to Writer, but occurs with Writer, Calc and 
Impress.

It does look (to my untutored eye) like OO is picking up what it pastes from a
temporary storage areas or buffer instead of from the clipboard.  Or that the W7
64 bit clipboard is storing the previous contents, as well as the current
contents, and OO is sometimes getting the previous contents instead of the
current contents.
