Problem

I am using PuTTY to connect a remote host and editing via Vim. I meet a trouble when I try to paste something to Vim. That is, I copy something to the clipboard in my local host and want to paste it to the Vim on the remote host. How can I do that? PS: I am using PuTTY! So, I open a Vim window via PuTTY. The very need is that I want to copy something in my local host and paste it to the Vim editor opened by PuTTY. That's all.
