It's working here. Is the MText imported from a DWG maybe?

I don't think so.

Here's what I did:

I grouped the MText entities in order. Then used Control-E / Group to copy them to the Clipboard. When I try to paste into a ParaText window, nothing happens.

If you use Explode in the MText menu, it will convert the MText to regular text, then it will work.

Ahhh I was missing that you were trying to take from multiple MText contents, my bad. Yeah Dave's method works well.
