Need help with attempting copy of 1 line of text

Question

Hello All,
I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction. I've been using DW for many years and write php/mysql code with it. Over the weekend, I downloaded and instalt a brand new copy of CS4 .I'm trying to learn all the new ins and outs.
I'm using Dreamweaver and am writing a php script. I'm in Code View and have my page structured with all the php code at the top of the page between my <?php and ?> symbols and all my html form code at the bottom. I'm attempting to copy one line of php code from my script to paste in the same script just a bit farther done in the code.
I hightlight the line of code using the left button of the mouse and then press Cntl-C. When I do this, DW highlights all the php code from the open symbol to the closing symbol and then moves the screen view to the top of the page. This same behavior happens if I highlight, and right click to select copy from the pop-up menu.
I'm only trying to copy one line of code so this is really very odd to me!
Do I have a setting value wrong?
Is anybody else experiencing this??
And help at all???
Thanks,
Dennis

This has been discussed to death. Just click the top item in the More Like This box on the right.
It's an intermittent problem. I have never once encountered it in working on several machines and operating systems. Others find themselves constantly plagued. The key to finding out what causes it lies in finding the common element that triggers the problem. No one has managed to do that so far.
It appears that making a change in the page before trying to copy eliminates the problem. Others have also found that switching workspace clears the problem.
