Problem with pasting from clipboard

I am using MD on a Leopard Mac. I use a clipboard program (now iClip, but had same problem when using previous clip manager) and a program to save frequently used text (TextExpander). I believe I had this problem when using MD on Windows but can't be sure. The problem reoccurs but I haven't been able to pin down why/when. The problem is that when I use a text abbreviation, what gets pasted is not the text expansion associated with the abbreviation but the most recent text in the clipboard. I wouldn't assume this is an MD problem except that as far as I can remember, I don't have this behavior in any program other than MD.

    Hi Gandalf

    I'm sorry I do not fully understand the problem from the description given. What do you mean by "when I use a text abbreviation"? Exactly where are you trying to copy from and exactly where are you trying to paste too. Please give me detailed instructions such that I can attempt to reporduce what you are seeing.

    Sincerely

    Ben Spencer
