            Bug ID: 114337
           Summary: EDITING - Copying content from Calc to Base ignores
                    clipboard changes
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mkrebes at freenet.de

Description:
Although the clipboard content was changed, LO Base keeps inserting the old
out-of-date clipboard content which was current, when the program (Base) was
started.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have an .odb file ready to quickly branch into a pre-setup database with LO
base
2. Open a .xlsx file with lets say a basic table as simple as 1 column with a
heading and some data below
3. copy the full data area (including header in my case but that doesnt matter)
4. open base (using the mentioned .odb file in my case)
5. insert your clipboard content to a suited database, check the db content
with a double click
6. change the data in calc, save, copy to clipboard again
7. go to base again and insert the "new" clipboard content to the same file

Actual Results:  
The same old clipboard content that was current when base was started gets
inserted to the database again.

Expected Results:
The new clipboard content should be inserted.
That the clipboard actually contains new data can be seen if the insert is done
to any other programm let it be notepad or word or whatever.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
My guess would be that base somehow reads out the clipboard when it is started,
saves the content to another data structure and furthermore no longer checks if
the clipboard was updated.
Problem can be worked around by closing base and starting it again AFTER the
clipboard content was changed. Then the new content gets inserted, but again,
as soon as its changed the new content is ignored.
