New recreatable bug in 5.0?

Hi there, been using Textpad from back in the 4.0 days so do know my way around, now using 5.0. Anyways, Ive been noticing a very unusual 'feature' in TP lately since upgrading to Textpad.
If im in the process of editing a file in textpad (In this case a .inc file, simple text) and I want to copy and paste some text from another window (for example, and Outlook email) I usually highlight the text I want, and instead of the Ctrl-C, I would just click and drag the highlighted text into text pad. That works fine, however, after that I can only use the a-z keys adn numbers, I cant use any of the delete, return, arrows or backspace keys etc.

Very frustrating as I have to quit out and restart to return to normal use.

Any thoughts? Has this been mentioned before?

We can't reproduce this behaviour in TextPad 5.0.3, so if you are not already using this version, please upgrade and see if that fixes the problem.

You are indeed correct, the latest version has solved it. Many thanks for your help.
