Cut & Paste in Swing

Hi. I have an application with a JTable and a custom cell editor
object. I have cut and paste from the system clipboard working, but
only for unformatted strings.

My custom cell editor allows text formatting including bold, underline,
italic, and selection of fonts. I would like to be able to cut and
paste to/from different cells in the program, and to/from external
software such as editors.

As far as I can see, I can easily cut and paste formatted information
between cells in my program using a custom data flavour. However, this
wouldn't allow me to cut and paste formatted text to/from word
processors etc.

Thanks in anticipation,

Ross-c
