Description

Describe the bug...

Steps to reproduce

  1. Copy any text from a Word document that includes a file location, such as: g:\program files\test\test.xls
  2. Paste into GUI Mode editor.
  3. Save changes
  4. You will then receive the error "cannot concatenate 'str' and 'instance' objects"

This may be frustrating for new users, which makes it harder to implement within the company. I believe it is trying to translate the \ as a subpage.
