Description:
Copy paste datatype should be possible as selecting text when modifying datatype is it allowed !

Unfortunately it stil copies the curent;ly selected table when in diagram !

How to repeat:
click on a table in diagram to edit its columns

select a column and type decimal(9,2) for example then select that inputed text and ctrl+c

then you click on a second table in diagram and click on a datatype for any column to edit and as you expect ctrl+V should paste the copied text in the previous ctrl+C operation but :

the ctrl+v is creating a copy of the table !

Suggested fix:
please simple copy the object text when in the table edit mode !

Copy paste tables in diagrams should work only when the editing of the table is closed by pressing X to close the opened editing table area !

What OS do you use? Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V works exactly as you expected in Workbench 5.2.31 on Windows XP.

You seem to be right ! I've rechecked and is as you said and I've hoped too...

Anyhow it looks yesterday was working different so I will try to see what exactly is producing that error and what circumstances or steps I've done to arrive in a bad copy behaviour !

Thank you

Sorry I forgot to mention

OS Name:                   Microsoftr Windows VistaT Home Premium
OS Version:                6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002

Unfortunatelly it happens in some unknown yet circumstances !

After I've played with my schema for around 1 hour, Ive decided to add a new column and now after copy a decimal(2,0) type to the new one the paste is copying the table in the diagram.

I;ve closed the column tab and table sheet at all, then double clicked again on the table, but the copy is not working normal.

Hard to say how to reproduce the case...

Maybe you can keep it under attention or checked as not 100% perfect ! ;)

Thanks in advance.

so last crash was happening by only doing :
open a model from list
than clicking ALT+F4 

I think this is the single case when is happening

is happening also when clicking the x in the right top corner of WB !

this only happens when the table-colmun-line is selected instead of only the datatype or name field.

Fixed as of 5.2.36:

+        Copying a table column would lose the data type, when only the
+        column line number was selected instead of the data type or
+        field name.
