How to reproduce:
Open database with more than one table (in my case: Sqlite-ODBC based)
Open one table, select multiple rows and copy them
Open new spreadsheet and paste
Remove formatting (that is another issue: pasting from database into Calc lets
you choose only between HTML and RTF formatted text, unformatted is not
available) and edit data
Select all data and copy them
Right-Click on original table in database and select paste
A dialag allows you to match fields and append the modified data to the table

so far it works ...

But now do exactly the same to another table of the same database - preferably
with different structure:
Select multiple rows and copy them
Paste them into a new spreadsheet, remove formatting and edit
Copy the modified spreadsheet data and try to paste them to the second table

The data Base tries to append to the second table are from the first one, those
copied modified from the first spreadsheet. With different structures it is
obvious that the fields do not match. The Windows clipboard holds the new
table/spreadsheet 2 data, as can be verified with the clipboard viewer or by
pasting them to different programs, even Writer or Calc, but Base has still the
modified table 1 data as can be seen when pasted to a new table.

Where does Base keep the old clipboard contents? Seems it refuses to release it
when the system (Windows) clipboard contents changes.

Workaround:
Close database and open it again: this time it will paste the current clipboard
contents - no need to copy it again.
