Steps to reproduce:
1. Put some text on your clipboard.
2. Press control+f or control+r in BED.
3. Try to paste.
Expected result: the existing text is overwritten, like Notepad etc do.
Current behavior: Pasting flat out doesn't work.

it works if you press shift-insert
Ooh, thanks! That does indeed work, although I say control+v should also be added, not all keyboards have an insert key these days :(

Don't hold your breath.  The problem is that I would have to subclass each combobox
in the Find/Replace dialogs because the combobox does not natively support control-v

It doesn't? I've seen Windows combo boxes support this before, what's the hangup with the particular ones in this dialog?

You have the source code to BED and are free to try.

If you succeed, send me the changes and I'll include with the next BED update.

My focus is on the translator right now.
