[RWP] can anyone explain this behaviour?

Okay, so I'm still locked in this farce with copy paste. In order to try to get to the bottom of it, I abandoned imported audio, and instead recorded a couple of guitar tracks. I then select both tracks with shift space, then use shift page down to select the first 8 measures. Then I hit control C to copy. I make sure the cursor is at the start of measure 9, and hit control V to paste. It pastes only the audio from track 2. So I undo the paste, and try unselecting track 2, and then with just track 1 selected, I repeat the procedure with the same result; just the audio from track 2 is pasted, and it wasn't even selected. I undo again, make sure that I am on track 1, and do a control left arrow to select the item, and try the copy and paste again. The audio from track 2 is still being pasted but not track 1. I try unselecting track 1 aswell as track 2, still only track 2 pastes.
Where's the logic? . The only difference I could see between the two tracks was that track 1 was saying touched and track 2 wasn't. Don't know what this means or how to get rid of it, or even if it matters. Searched the whole of the user manual for touched and got a few references to last touched items but it didn't really elaborate on what it meant or what it was useful for.
Any ideas guys because I'm coming to the end of my tether. Cheers.
