Layer disappears when pasting text

1.Text disappears when editing a layer in Dreamweaver 8

I have had a problem for a long time now with text disappearing while I'm 
editing it in a layer.  If I scroll up to the top of the page and down again 
(sometimes a couple of times), the text will reappear, but this is cumbersome 
(and rather annoying).  Does anyone else have this problem?  Is it something 
I'm doing incorrectly?  Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

2.Dynamic text disappears under mask layer

In Flash 8, I created a mask layer that made certain areas of dynamic text 
visible. However, in CS3 when I try to do this, the dynamic text disappears 
altogether. I created a new file to see if it was something I was doing or if 
every time I mask layer appears over top of dynamic text it disappears. Turns 
out it's the latter. Any idea how to work around this or why a mask would make 
dynamic/input text disappear but not static?

3.Layers disappearing from layer palette

Named layers that have been appearing in the layer palette have now disappeared 
from the palette although the layers are still appearning on the page.  I am 
working on a template if that makes any difference in Dreamweaver 8.

4.Cut/Pasting Text from one layer/class to another

Sometimes cutting and pasting text from one box to another works just as one 
would expect.

 Other times the PASTE command results not in the placement of the text where 
the cursor is, but in a whole new box created for the text on the fly way off 
to the side.  It registers on the Layers panel as a new layer contained within 
the target box.

 How counter-intuitive.

 Is there a way to transfer text across layers reliably?

5.pasted HTML text disappears

Thanks Jean_Guy

That was the first thing I thought too, but the font is black on a white 
background.
To double check, I tried to pasted it into a .doc and it pasted fine.

However, in EXCEL, I have to double click the mouse to get the text to 
appear.  

I just noiticed that when I do that, most of the options, on the standard 
options toolbar, selected from the "View," go gray.
 
Opening "View," on the Menu, when the only choice that isn't gray is 
"toolbars.". 

For the cell that keeps hiding, at the input box at the top of the page, 
where a "=" is entered to indicate the cell contains a formula is active and 
shows, an X, a check mark, and the = sign.

However, for the cells that show text, that area is gray and empty. When I 
select one of those cells, all the options that gray out when the "blank" row 
that contains a header and has to be double clicked to get it to show, return.

So, we are still unsolved on this problem.   Oh, I also checked to see if 
anyting was hidden and it wasn't.  

More help is needed to figure out how to simply paste the headers in a cell, 
without having them disappear unless I double click the cell and keep the 
curson in it.

Thanks, Bob
