Split Screen Copy Problems

This is a cross post....

My problem is when I am using the split screen editor and I copy and paste
from the bottom pane to the top pane, the top pane will reposition itself to
where the bottom pane is pointed to and I loose my place in the upper pane.

Has anyone experiences this, and is there a setting somewhere to change this
behavior?

Thanks.

I also get this problem using VS.NET 2003 Version 7.1.3088

Basically if you split a window, and then paste into the top pain the
position jumps to the same location as the cursor in the bottom pain.
 
In case any of you were unable to reproduce the error, there are a few things you need to know.
When performing the copy and paste from the bottom screen to the top, the error does not occur if you leave the copy text selected (i.e. highlighted). However, when you copy and click elsewhere in the bottom pane then paste on the top pane, the error occurs.

I've tried and still can't reproduce the problem you describe. :(

Does it matter which language you're using (I'm using C++), or
possibly some other editor setting?

I am using c#, but I also get it when editing HTML and Javascript pages.

I can reproduce it when editing a .htm file.

The good news is that it appears to be fixed in the Whidbey (VS2005)
test release version (for .htm files anyhow).

Perhaps I should have been clearer - I only tried .htm files so I
can't say for sure if it's OK for the other types of files.
