No problem. The Testtool should be able to do whatever one can do manually,
which is also the case with "EditCopy", "EditPaste", "EditPasteSpecial" etc.

Those commands triggers the same functions the user manually triggers.
Same thing. Only different ways to do it.

Hi Alex,

not sure I understand you right. But the Testtool doesn't have a "Paste
special"-feature,

Sorry, my bad. I forgot you were using the testool. For normal use, the option is under the Edit menu. Probably only available when you're actually working on something. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to be able to use it in the automated environment though.

To check whether it does what you need, you'd have to use it manually.

and when I try to "paste special" with for instance Wordpad (WinXP) - I
get the same
result as when I try to paste within Testtool, or some Editor: either
nothing, or the editor
simply jumps down a line - leaving the first one empty.

Ps. If you copy an object, the whole object gets into the clipboard.
If you only want the text, you'll have to bring up the properties for
the Object, select the text you want, and from there copy it.

With some Objects (such as Fields) it _should_ be possible to paste the
text
from the object outside the office - as text - not as the whole object.
This is because "Fields" is actually not an "Object" but an
"Text-Element".
What's wrong with simply copying, then using the "Paste Special" command,
deselect everything except text (Haven't tried it since OO.o 2.3.x, so it
might have changed - doubtful though).
