I am using gVim 7.3 on Windows x64 platform.
Yes, I want to replace a word at the cursor position by 
another word yanked from a different position.
I thought viwp followed by yiw and cursor movement is 
a well-known sequence of key strokes for this purpose. 
Sorry for my previous imprecise description.
With clipboard=unnamed and guioptions=a set,
I found out there happens a hidden yank between
viw( visually selecting a word ) and 
p( overwriting the selected visual block with previously yanked word  )
both to the unnamed register and the os clipboard register.
So it looks like my previously yanked word 
just disappears from the register.
But I don't think it's a bug or something 
because it operates as specified in 
guioption=autoselect section of vim documentation.
With guioptions=a unset, this problem has gone.
Thanks
Kyung-Kook
