I can confirm this method works without a problem on my Windows XP ported version of LyX 1.3.5.
Hmm! That does not seem to be the case on my linux lyx 1.3.4 where the procedure I follow relatively routinely is as follows:
1. Go to the first text document and highlight the text to be copied by highlighting and ctrl C.
2. Click outside the highlighted text to get rid of the highlight. This for some reason is fairly important.
3,.Go to the other lyx document, opened by a separate lyx command.
4. Push the middle mouse button where you want to place the copied text.
I have just done this again to ensure that it does work.Maybe it does not work on all configurations.
