When I changed a TEPaste to a TEStylPaste to try to upgrade to styled TE, I found my paste behavior had not changed, and no style information was preserved in the paste. I thought I understood that TECut and TECopy would preserve a "styl" scrap type when called with a styled TE record, but (according to clipboard magician) all I have on the scrap after a copy is a TEXT scrap.
My TE record was created with TEStylNew, and I can change the style of a selection, but I can't move text around and preserve its style.  Can someone tell me what I have overlooked?

Also - is there a convention for preserving the style record? A "styl" resource containing a StScrpRec perhaps??

Thanks - sorry for the dumb questions.
