how to get out of text-editing mode

[kennyj]

Paste
Insert a copy of the clipboard's current contents into the outline.  
It is inserted at the text cursor or, if a row is selected, after the  
selected row. Note that when you are in text-editing mode, the lines  
get pasted into the row. When you are outside of text-editing mode,  
the lines get pasted as individual rows.

I've searched high and low, and I haven't been able to find anything  
else referencing this "text-editing mode".
I'm trying to copy multiple lines from one OO file to another, but  
when I paste, it all goes on one line, and all of my checkboxes  
disappear.


Would someone kindly point out what I'm missing?


Thanks,

Kenny
