Copy/paste doesn't work if cell contains bullets.
 
Example 1 - copy/paste works
 
1) cell contains normal text.
2) Copy cell (not in edit mode);  Paste in new cell (not in edit mode).
3) Correctly pastes all text in new cell, overwriting any existing cell
 
Example 2 - copy/paste doesn't work
 
1) cell contains bulleted text (bullets inserted using alt-7:  • like this)
2) same as above
3) pastes single quote mark instead of copied text.
 
This will probably be arcane for most people but I use bulleted text a lot.  I've tested it quite a few times and re-booted.

Might as well add these, too: 
 
1) You cannot copy an item containing an image and paste it elsewhere (it pastes a blank).  I haven't been able to find a workaround other than doing a screen capture of the item.
 
2) You can copy an image in the HTML pane and paste it in the grid, but only by using edit>copy.  For some reason, ctrl-c doesn't work.

  1. re: • like this: Fixed in v98e. In the meantime, paste special -- html or Unicode works
  2. Images: Use XML copy, as images are stored in field-values
  3. I'll need to check that one...
