MySQL Bugs: #59539: "Requested clipboard operation did not succeed"

Bug #59539	"Requested clipboard operation did not succeed"
Submitted:	16 Jan 2011 20:18	Modified:	1 Mar 2011 10:25
Reporter:	Paul Wolstenholme	Email Updates:
Status:	No Feedback	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Workbench	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	5.2.30CE	OS:	Windows (XPSP3)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
Using MySQL workbench, used copy to clipboard - create statement
on a schema that had been imported from MySQL 5.0.19.
The resulting window stated "Requested clipboard operation did not succeed" and requested that a bug report be filed.  Clicking the appropriate button opened the form to file this bug.

Repeating the same operation does NOT cause another error until workbench is closed and reopened.

How to repeat:
Open MySQL Workbench 5.2 CE (ver 5.2.30CE)
Open connection to start querying (using a link to a version 5.1.45-community database server)
Right click a schema, even the Test schema,
 select 'copy to clipboard - create statement'

Hi Paul,
can you repeat the problem, and when the "report a bug" dialog appears, right-click somewhere inside, copy the stack information and add it to this report?
thanks in advance

I have executed the following request and pasted the stack trace below.

Please, check if the same problem is repeatable with a newer version, 5.2.31a.
