PB-Clipboard seems to be restricted ?

Hi,
Is there any PB-setting to get copied source code from the PB-clipboard to paste it in my text-editor (UE) ?
Now copy and paste can only be used inside PB itself. (XP SP3)
Thanks,

I can copy and paste text between the PureBasic editor and any other editor without any problem.

You do not actually need to copy and paste between PB and UE. You can edit the same files in both, at the same time - when you save file in UE, PB knows and vice-versa.

In the most recent edition of UltraEdit there are more than one clipboard (10 in fact). You may have inadvertently switched to a different clipboard than the standard one and are thus interacting with different information.
UltraEdit indicates which clipboard is being used in the status bar. It is shown after the column (i.e. Ln 3, Col 1, C3). The clipboard to use in UltraEdit to share information with PureBasic and other programs is clipboard zero. The keypress to select it in UltraEdit is 'CTRL + 0'.

Ok, thanks for the help all.
It seems there is (was something wrong with my system).
I did a reboot (instead of wake-up call, like mostly) and it works again like should.
@Demivec good point you mentioned, but UE is set on the windows clipboard (not one of the other 9 I can choose).
