OOo Writer 2.0.0.1 (the SuSE build of 2.0)
SuSE Linux 10.0
Dell 9150, Pentium D (x86-64), 2 GB, Java 5

Surely this one has been reported, but after rummaging 
around in the OOo issue database I can't find anything 
resembling it. On the other hand, I have trouble finding 
-anything- in Bugzilla, so maybe it's just my searching 
ineptitude.

To demonstrate the problem:

Import a jpg image file. Right-click on it, add a caption 
and set up borders. Select the frame containing the picture 
and caption, Ctrl-C to copy, click on another page, then 
Ctrl-V to paste. The result is a blizzard of ASCII text 
that seems to describe the image and caption, but it's 
surely not what happened in previous versions.

A snippet from one such episode:

------------------------

Of course, once in a while the picture pastes perfectly, but 
I haven't been able to figure out what I do differently. I 
mean, sheesh, Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V don't give one much room 
for creativity...

Am I alone with this pesky problem?

Thanks!
