I have been fighting with this cut, copy and paste problem for ages as well. One example where it hasnt worked for me is if I cut and paste between.
Openoffice spreadsheet -> VNC (Windows Machine)
it does work if I do
Openoffice spreadsheet - gedit (gnome text editor) -> vnc.
Reading this thread I started looking around again and found this nifty program, thank goodness it works! Maybe it will work for you.

I commend the GNOME folks for trying to standardize the behavior of GNOME apps, though I occasionally think they carry the idea too far. (It seems they can't win, though. If they push standards too hard, folks bitch about lack of flexibility. If they don't push hard enough, we get threads like this one. It's a delicate balance, and we will know they've achieved it when nobody is entirely happy.)
Isn't that the whole point of having standards committees?
or marriage?
