In that case, it'd be good to clear the transaction paste buffer
when reading in a new file so that people won't make the
mistake of thinking they can cut/paste between databases.

It can't work, the account GUIDs from the one book won't be valid in the other 
book.

I'm running gnucash 4.5

I've got two gnucash databases (personal and business) and I
accidentally entered a charge into one instead of the other. So I
tried cut from one and paste into the other and it didn't work.

When I pasted, I got only the Description got pasted, and I filled in
the rest
of the transaction manually, but I couldn't get it to enter. The
'Enter' key did nothing and the transaction still stayed open.

I had to cancel the transaction and enter the whole thing by hand and
it worked.

It'd not a big deal to get it fixed, or maybe copy/paste isn't
supposed to work between
databases?

I agree, it doesn't work, and I haven't tried to do it for a long time.
