Your email is unclear about which programs you're copying from and which 
programs you're copying to, so my response will be a bit general here.

Copying anything from Publicon or Mathematica 5 into Mathematica 6 should work 
fine.  Copying things from Mathematica 6 to Publicon or Mathematica 5 should
generally work with the exception of anything which uses the new Mathematica 6 
features.  This includes graphics, dynamic features, and controls.

In the specific case of graphics, you can cause Mathematica 6 to fall back to 
Mathematica 5 behavior in how it generates graphics by evaluating...

<< Version5`Graphics`

Note, however, that some new graphics features may not produce the expected
results in this mode.  To revert back to the new graphics, evaluate...

<< Version6`Graphics`

If you're copying to programs not made by Wolfram Research, then you'll need to 
be specific about what platform you're on and what program you're copying to.

Sincerely,
