Sporadic Copying of Text Into Word Perfect X5

I am encountering sporadic copying of text from L4 into Word Perfect X5. After doing a basic search on "religion" I encountered many hits and started to click the links, read the various works, and when I found a definition I liked, I blocked the text, right clicked, made sure "select text" was to the right of copy, and clicked on copy.

The first time I did this the text I copied into my WP outline worked just fine.  The next time I tried it, on a different portion of text, nothing pasted. I was using the right click "paste without font/attributes". I then tried it again, and again. Then tried a different article. Then a larger portion of a different article, about the 5th or 6th attempt, the text copied into the WP document, inserting the end note citation perfectly.

After trying to paste the text I wanted again into Word Perfect without success I opened up MS Word, 2010 and tried pasting the text into a Word Document. It worked fine. Then I toggled over to Word Perfect, still nothing. Then I tired regular paste, which didn't work. Then tried past without font/attributes and it didn't work. Then tried Paste Unformatted text. That worked. I tried it again and it seems to work consistently, though it does not create end note citations, but includes the citation several spaces below the pasted text.

I hope this gets fixed soon. I live by Logos!
