It appears that the SourceSafe editor includes a bunch of trailing NULL chars when copying to the clipboard, and the editor component we use erroneously includes the null chars when pasting (although they show up as spaces here rather than hollow rectangles).

We've reported the problem to the vendor of the editing component. It sounds like it may already be fixed in an internal build, so we should have a fix fairly soon.

It appears that the null characters get removed after closing and re-opening the script editor. One other workaround you can use for now is PureText [1], which strips the trailing nulls when pasting.
